To gather information about ConTeXt I have
- read the ConTeXt Reference Manual (http://pmrb.free.fr/contextref.pdf)
- bought a couple of the published books by Hans Hagen
- started reading the "TeX book" by Donald Knuth

I have even briefly flirted with the idea of switching to LaTeX mainly because it would mean having a lot more literature and a broader community at my disposal. However, I just prefer the command structure and output of ConTeXt. Can anyone relate to my problem? Am I on the right track? What else should I be doing or reading to really break into ConTeXt?

you have missed

- read the source

Take a problem, grep the source see how Hans addresses the problem.
There are examples on how to use a feature that sometime are not explained in manuals.

I think that here mkiv is better than latex (oh, well, after all it's the context ml , right ?).
