True, that applies to any USB device. In sleep mode, the ram is the
only thing that remains powered, everything else including the USB
ports are turned off. So that's something to be aware of if you have
anything that charges via USB, or in any other way relies on USB power.
I only let my computer automatically sleep if it's on battery. If I'm
on AC I make sure it doesn't, since it seems to suspend when I least
want it to :).

The iPod will still charge when ejected. It draws power from the
USB port, regardless of whether iTunes is running or not.
The iPod will charge while it's connected to your Mac even after
it's been ejected but it will NOT charge if the computer is in sleep
mode (just in case any users have left their iPods to charge and
walked away from the computer). And if you wake up your computer
with the (ejected) iPod connected via its USB cable the iPod will
behave as though you just plugged the USB cable in (e.g., it might
try to sync, depending on your settings).
