Other is the following

1) The iPod database file (essential non-removeable)
2) The iPod artwork database (essential non-removable)
3) Calenders (remove by not syncing)
4) Address book (remove by not syncing)
5) Notes (remove from the iPod in disk mode by doing to the hard disk)
6) Any extra files you add to the iPods disk via explorer (remove via the explorer in the way you remove anything from an external
7) Basic iPod operating system files (essential non-removable)

This is best taken care of by restoring and resyncing.

sometimes its all album artwork and song lyrics, if you have those on your songs. get rid of that and restore the ipod, should be good.
