    Bought a new 80GB ipod the other day and loving it. But just wondering if there's a way I can stop all my photos, videos etc being automatically transferred on to it when it's syncing? I know you can uncheck music and that's cool but I don't want poxy photos taking up space on machine.

    When you are in iTunes, click on your iPod to the left of the screen. It should bring up a 'home page' for your iPod. On that screen you should see a checkbox for syncing, just switch it off.

    Yeah I've done that but I'm still left with hundreds of photos on it. How can I get rid?

    not sure as mine never sync'd photos even when i used itunes, but perhaps going into the ipod through my computer >> ipod >> have a root around here.

    Ok, go into 'preferences' on iTunes and have a root around for something that will display 'photos' on the left hand side of the screen (next to music, podcasts, etc). Then you should be able to delete them the same way you delete songs.
