In iTunes you'll notice a checkbox to the left of each track. Uncheck any you never want on the Nano and then check the preferences. I forget exactly where but probably on the iPod tab is an option to only sync checked tracks. You can use Ctrl-click to have all checkboxes in the current window toggle along with the one you're clicking. I hear what you’re saying about the click wheel.

Widescreen, maybe speakers, more storage etc. I'm guessing the next version of the iPod will be something that is more video capable and not just an "add-on".

I've never lost songs when I upgraded my iPod. Just a thought. Congrats on the purchase. I’m waiting for the “Real” video iPod to come out before I upgrade.
