TSE EA subscribers need access to TGE documentation?

Hello all,
I figured that we were pretty competant developers and that although the TSE was in an "early adopter" state, we'd at least have access to the source code and we'd be able to work around anything that wasn't quite "ready for primetime".
What I didn't expect was the learning curve of getting accustomed to how to effectively work in the Torque environment, learn Torque script, and get comfortable with the tools that TSE does have (many of which are based off of TGE tools).
Normally I'd say that's not a problem, except the TSE section of the TDN is very sparse at the moment, and since we did not purchase the TGE license (only the TSE) we do not have access to, what I can only assume, is a wealth of information in the TGE section of the TDN.
Does anyone have any advice on how to get up to speed on the TGE environment with only a TSE license?
(besides going out and buying the two Torque books which everyone recommends)...

If you did buy the TSE commercial version... I'm guessing the docs on TDN are next to non because of TSE being in EA and as it's always changing, it would be a pain in the ass to keep up to date.

Sonalysts, do you own TSE? if you do (and you didn't buy the TSE commercial version) then you should own TGE and you won't have a problem accessing TGE docs.

All taken care of. You should now be able to access all the TGE documentation sections of TDN.

Are there any other sources of documentation outside of the TDN that would be helpful to us?
(i.e. resources that are privy to TGE Commercial customers but not TSE Commercial customers, at least at the moment while in "Early Adopter" status)
Thanks again for your help!
