I bought my iPod a year ago and it might as well be surgically attached to my body. I don't go anywhere without it.
Only thing I don't like is that I have to keep a mirror on the hard drive. I went to my brother's place and had him add some songs from his collection to my iPod. He's running Linux, so we downloaded some freeware iPod apps to load the mp3s on and away we went. I got home, plugged the iPod into the computer, it said "Hey, these MP3s aren't in the mirror... I should delete these!" and all the songs were nicely erased from the iPod. It assumes that the mirror on the HD is the source and you can never have more songs on the iPod than you do on your HD. Which is really stupid considering that I have a 40G iPod, using 24G, and I really don't want to give up that drive space. (Yeah, I know, I can get a 250GB drive for little over $100, but I'm a cheap-ass SOB).

This seems odd to me. I also have a 40gig iPod and keep no MP3's on my HD.
I've never had this problem. I think all you need to do is turn off the Autosync mode. That's the reason it auto updates from your iTunes library.
