Track Numbers

Quick question - getting my ipod tomorrow and setting up itunes at present. Need to know if when you play an album on the ipod it plays tracks by track number - i'd hope so.
Just want to make sure before I spend a load of time updating all my mp3 id tags....
Oh anyone know any easy ways of updating the tags?
Sorry thats 2 questions...

Yes iPod will play by track numbers if you have sorted that way in iTunes.

Hi, Thanks!
I have the track numbers in itunes but it doesnt seem to sort by them within an album. ie. if i click track at the top it sorts all of by songs by track so i get loads of 1's then loads of 2's etc.
How do I sort by track within an album?
Thanks

As long as you don't have either shuffle option enabled than it will play in order when you select an album. And If you still like having shuffle for your playlists Itunes will randomize them for you.

Also in Itunes to have it sort by tracks in an album click sort by Artist or Sort by Album
