How do I "reset" calendars and contacts on iPod Touch 2G

I need to know how to erase and/or reset all contacts and calendars on my ipod Touch. Initially I synced with my mobileme account. When one of my contacts did not sync properly, however, I set iTunes to sync with calendars and contacts. Now I have duplicate contact and calendar entries on my Touch. I want to erase/reset all calendars and contacts on my Touch, and then sync them again and in the future via mobileme. Please help. Thanks!

G5 Dual 2.0 + iMac Intel 2.16/2 +Macbook 2.2/2, Mac OS X (10.5.8), iPod Touch, 2G

Ah, I see what you did. However I think my problem is a little bit different. I have my "mobile.me" contact file (which syncs just fine), PLUS I have an "on my iPod touch" contact file. I'd like to delete the "on my iPod" set of info and retain the Apple (me.com) info.

Any suggestions would be welcome.

I'm sorry, but I just tripped on the solution. I am new to the Touch and do not really have any expertise. I do know, however, that there is a Touch manual that you can download from Apple. Maybe that would help? Good luck.
