Here we use Filemaker to manage our databases.

Now we were interested in evaluating filemaker to go to use it
eventually on an IPAD (which still we don't have).

Before buying, however, I want to understand a few issues which the
website didn't answer me (it's just marketing and vapor-ware there).

The first problem is about the synchronization of the data.
Is it still true that fm-to-go doesn't let you modify or create new
records?

That is not the end of the world, and it might even be fine.  But we
have a lot of databases (> 30 probably) and I would like to
synchronize
them all in the morning.

From what I've read we need to use iTunes and do some manual boring
and
stupid procedure. Are there smarter and automatic ways to use
something
like rsync?
