HOW DO I REMOVE SONGS FROM MY iPOD?

Just got a new iPOD 4GB Special Edition (RED) for Christmas.
I'm ready to give up on this thing.

Used to have a cheap one that held "20" songs and hubby bought me this new one. When I plugged it into computer, it transferred EVERY song that was on the computer into my NANO!!!

Is there a way I can remove all of the songs at once or do I have to go through each one individually (139 songs) to get them off NANO?

Thanks for your help.

iPod Nano (Special Edition) Red, Windows XP

Set your iPod to manually manage your music. Highlight all the songs and push the delete key. You do not need to restore it.

Open iTunes on your computer.
Connect your iPod to your computer and wait for it to appear in iTunes.
Select your iPod in the Source pane under the Devices section to display your iPod preferences in the main library window.
Click the Summary tab in the main iTunes window.
Click the Manually manage music button. Changing from automatic updating to manual puts a check mark by Enable disk use. A message says
"Disabling automatic update requires manually unmounting the iPod before each disconnect."

Click OK in the message window.
Click Apply in the iPod preferences section of the iTunes window.
