Thanks for the info and tip dagger, and I have checked out some of those tutorials (found an interactive start-up tutorial last night that I really liked), I'll look for a landing one though. The manual does an alright job of explaining it, but as is usually the case, the community can do one better.

EDIT: Been looking for some video tuts, but there ain't much out there that I can find. If you know of any good links let me know
