I am considering procuring a 20GB iPod in the immediate future, however, as someone who doesn't have a particular fast connection at home, and doesn't have an Apple interface at all, I am rather skittish about the entire business, and so I turn to you lot. Tell me everything you think I should know.*

*I have also been told that once you set up one computer as your base, you can't use other computers to upload your music without losing all the contents of your iPod. I have also been told there is a way around this. Educate me kids, because my base will not be a consistent thing, like, ever.

ETA: Thank you, all of you, for your assistance!

This is not even a little bit true. Yes, you can set up your iPod to automatically sync with your computer so that you always have the same playlist on both, but this is a feature you can turn on and off at will. As long as this feature is not on, it will not do this with your computer or any other. You can add and subtract music at will, from any source.
