this topic title and description sort of says it all.

I have a magnetic tank bag that I like a lot. I like detaching the tether and taking it with me into stops on the road instead of unhooking a bag. I've ridden with my digital camera inside and never noticed a problem. Well, come to think of it the camera that I carried in there had an internal battery and it failed. Camera still works if plugged into the battery charger into the outlet. hmmmm....

Anyway, anyone out there have a verified failure to report where the magnets of the tank bag caused an ipod or digital camera to not work?

 
Have carried my cellphone in a belt case that has an magnetic closure for quite some time, ...& the magnet is right up against the phone in this case, FWIW no issues to date w/ either the phone or the camera function.
