I dislike high mega pixel cameras because they are increasing in stored picture size faster than my hard drives are keeping up. e.g. when I went from a 4 mega pixel camera to an 8 mega pixel camera my file sizes became 4 times larger. My internal disk drive did not become 4 times larger in that time so I had to start using external storage. It became harder to squeeze these onto ipods.
If harddrive space is such an issue to you, why don't you change your camera's quality/image size setting from "super mega high quality" to "regular high quality"? Then your camera will save 4MP files instead of 8.
Also, if you just want to look at your photos on the ipod screen, why don't you use your favourite photo managing software to resize the files down to 320x240 before transferring to your ipod? (If, however you want to use your ipod as a transport device, then fair enough - file size might become an issue)
