The one thing I wonder about is disconnecting during the sync. A couple of times I have disconnected iPod Nanos during sync and had to restore them. It wasn't much more than a nuisance, admittedly, but on a slower sync with more data transfer (say 20 or 30 GB of video), the likelihood of disconnects being a problem may become significant.
