In any case, synching in iTunes sucks period vs. straight drag and drop as it's just added hassle. And if they don't go to more drag and drop (even if I reluctantly have to open iTunes to do it) I won't buy an iPad.
Which I probably won't as Apple just isn't going to be that open. They want it to be a very simple media consumption device for people who don't have tons of different content and thus can just set up all their synching stuff once and be done with it.
It's clunky for someone who constantly wants to just add content a file or two at a time.

i do agree to an extent but I was able to get use to it.
heres what I doe
Create a smart folder in iTunes called 'iPad photos' set that folder in iTunes to be the one that syncs.
then instead of opening a folder to browse images and drag the ones you want to a connected device, open iPhoto and drag the pics you want into your 'iPad photos' folder and connect device and sync voila pics you chose on iPad.
so basically instead of navigating through various folders to find the pics and then dragging them to the deviceI just use iPhoto to drag them tothe smart folder.
its nice to use iphoto to manage this its just different. another good trick is to set the smart folder to automatically add any photos to it that have a tag of 'iPad' then when importing pics add that tag next time you sync it will be on iPad.
