With the relatively small 8 GB (or even 4 GB) capacity, users will be syncing quite a bit more. Finding the sync cord (if it's not close by) and plugging it in does get old after awhile. You also have to factor in some wear on the dock connector as well...

Exactly! Especially considering the more important data (contacts, bookmarks, events, etc.). I can sync audio/video any time since that's not critical.
