"It doesn’t offer quite the same experience that a real cut-and-paste solution would (which would not be too comfortable with standard Finder either, because you can’t easily select the root folder in Finder once you’ve clicked an item in the folder), because I think it hasn’t got a shortcut and there is no easy way in OS X to get to the context menu using the keyboard only. And without a key it’s only half the fun.
However, you should have a look at FinderPop. (It’s not yet all feature complete on Snow Leopard as with earlier versions, but you can already use it.) You can see it more like a plugin to the context menu of Finder and some other programs.
Basically it adds a selection of folders to the Finder context menu and whenever you context a file, it allows you to select a target among these folders and then select the action (move or copy)."
