I'm trying to set flexible shipping costs based on the state, if CA or not CA.
Is this really the best solution available?

It feels like such a hack and makes the form look horrible.
Additionally, I'd love to have a "Shipping is Pending based on State" so they know that the shipping will be updated after they choose a state in the address section.
thoughts?

That is the best way I know of, to make a state available for conditional logic.
The "shipping pending based on state selection" notation would have to be added to the page with jQuery, then watch for a change in the state field and once that field no longer has focus, remove the notice and show that the calculated shipping amount is displayed.
Bummer.
Here is the solution I'm using instead, which is in line with what was originally suggested.
I was easily able to do it by adding a separate "State" selection and called it "Shipping State" and then I added a Select State to the dropdown with the pre-populated States. Then, in the conditional logic, I added "is not" Select State, that way it didn't auto-select Alabama, but it also gives the user the feeling that they need to select a state.
Hopefully this can be improved in future versions of GF.
Thanks Chris,
