I agree with you wholeheartedly—even John Sears got saddled with a
marketing role at one of these things that I went to! :^(

OTOH, the online stuff on the Web is quite excellent. There's a tutorial on
Java itself that's all real tech info. Go to <http://www.ibm.com/java>.
There's also a superb set of screen cams for VA for Java. Start at
<http://www.software.ibm.com/ad/vajava>.
