Magento - Selling from category page with no product page

Is it possible to have an active product show on a category page, but not have its own product page?
Where my products are very similar I want to sell them from a category page, hence the product does not need its own product page.
I know i can use XML in the category design tab to create/customise my own category page without product title links.
But is it possible to use XML on the product design tab to stop the products form being shown individually?

How to list the categories of the current store?

I have a site which have 2 store views. I want a page to list the categories of the current store and when I click on a category it should display all of the products in that category in a list.
Any who can give some idea about this?
That page already exists by default in Magento. It is probably a link in the page footer as "Site Map", or you can reach it directly by typing the URL of the store followed by /catalog/seo_sitemap/category

Display specific products on a CMS page

Could someone help me with some code to display specific products on a Magento CMS page?
The idea being that I build a page that has multiple sections on it (sections meaning a heading, some intro text and a small handful of products) and the user can add a selection of the displayed products to their cart from this page.
Ideally, the products should be displayed in the grid format, and I should be able to display between 1 and 6 products in each section.
I am using Magento 1.4.0.1 currently.
Cheers!
Consider using a CMS Widget to do this for you.
