Anyone know if its possible to transfer songs from your ipod to an iphone with Itunes? I deleted alot of songs from my PC that are on my ipod and I wanna avoid having to DL them all again for my iPhone.

Okay, heres what you do.  
Plug your iPod or iPhone into your computer.  
From the Desktop, go to My Computer and find the iPod (usually designated by a drive letter. i e. E: or F:)  
Open the damn thing.  
Go to Tools \> Folder Options \> View (the tab) \> scroll to Show Hidden Files and Folders and click it.  
Click OK  
Go back to your iPod folder/drive, there you will find a new folder called iPod\_Control  
Open it.  
The Music folder in it will have a bunch of folders named F00, F01 and so on. THEY HAVE YOUR MP3s AND VIDEOS. Look through the folders to find your stuff.

After iTunes processes all the music, hook up your iPhone, drag over all the music you just added onto your phone.  
Done.
