Windows 7-like-drag-apps-to-side-of-screen-to-re-adjust?

The one feature of Windows 7 I'm envious is the ability to drag an app window to the side of a window, and it resizes.

Is there an app for this on OS X?

The one thing I'd like changed, though, is that it not always automatically readjusts it to half. Say I want an Adium window on the left of my screen, if I could drag it there and it would readjust to make it fit on the screen, that'd be stellar.

I'm almost certain that there is nothing to replicate this in OS X; I've tried looking myself. The only thing that comes even close is a program called Zooom.

I have SizeUp and it works really nicely. Not quite as nice as 7's AeroSnap feature because you have to press keys rather than drag the window but still useful.
