Sitemaps are a great tool if you code properly. If you do not follow good coding techniques then no tools will help you. I hear the same argument about vb.net vs. c#.net. I'm proficient in both but I prefer vb as it's easier to work with and actually I find it LESS verbose than c#, contrary to the literature out there. The arguments against vb amount to the fact that it's easier to code poorly. So, don't code poorly! I always find my rankings go up after resubmitting my sitemap. I know my sitemap is not the only reason I get consistently high hits however. It's just a matter of doing everything correctly.
