Anybody else noticed that iTunes is an absolutely horrible, bloated piece of shit? For as much love as Apple gets (and hell, I provide my fair share), iTunes 7 really is one of the worst apps I’ve ever used. The simple fact that it mysteriously requires Quicktime to be installed is bad enough, but on top of that it’s just dog slow.
Stupid iPhone and its software lock-in. If I could sync that bad boy with Winamp, iTunes would be uninstalled in a heartbeat.

Rumor is that iTunes 8 will be out this summer along with 3G iPhones and possibly iPod Touches.
I don’t have much experience syncing either, but hopefully the slowness issues you speak of will be resolved as I have my eye on an iPT. I kinda doubt it though, considering the latest Windows update which required an install of Safari, I’m assuming they’re going to keep jam-packing each new version with things like Quicktime, etc…

well, to be fair, it runs fine (though not spectacular) on osx. apple devs apparently just don’t know how to develop apps for windows.
