I don't know about the first time, but it will always say that until you eject the hardware. If you have a PC, you have to click on the little icon you'd use to eject a CD or a datastick; if you have a Mac, just drag the iPod symbol on the desktop down to the trashcan/eject arrow. Eventually the "Do Not Disconnect" screen will disappear, and the regular front-page menu of your iPod will appear. Then it's safe to disconnect.

This is how it works on my PC at work... (I suck at describing this kind of thing, sorry in advance! *g*)

Okay, you know how there's a line of little bitty icons along the bottom of the screen on the right? There should be one there that looks like a little green arrow (pointing left) hovering over a gray rectangle. That's the "eject hardware" button. If you left-click on it, it'll display the name of any hardware currently attached to your system (the iPod). Just click on the name of the iPod in the display, and after a second a window will pop up saying "It is now safe to remove your hardware from the system" or something like that.
