I am smoking my bird this T-Day. I am going to use an injector to flavor the turkey, instead of brine. The real purpose of brine or injecting is to keep the bird moist. Sounds like you have success with keeping the bird moist without brine.

I will also rub the bird down with a rub of some type. I was over at Cabelas sampling a number of rubs the other day.

Take a look at this web site: smokingmeatforums.com, it has lots of info.
