The good news Ben is that the V8 configurator will WORK just like the current one (in the fact you create your BOs, queries, forms, rules, etc with the same LOGIC as you do now. So that does not have to be re-learned, and since 8.0 is not adding any new features (waiting patiently for 8.1), there is nothing new to learn that way.
The layout is very different. If you are familar with exclipse, you know you will have multiple, resizeable panels where the properies are. I would expect the learning curve for existing Awarians to be very short. Of course, since Vlad is the king of videos, I would expect to see one out soonish. However, it might be done like previous ones, where there will be a focus on an area of aware (forms, rules, etc.) and just show that.
Of course, I could be way off base.
