I'll be interested to see what you come up with as I'm also in the early process of writing several beginner level tutorials for a seminar I give at convention on Calibre. The seminar evolved from how to pick an ereader to how to convert fanfic to ereader friendly files to why Calibre is the one program you absolutely must have.
My biggest suggestion is do not try be 'cute' when describing things. There is a tutorial which shall remain nameless that has information I really want to know about but I cannot get past the cutsey language, "Oh, see how simple that was? Isn't this so much fun? Now let's try this easy step!" in it to actually learn what it's trying to teach. Well, actually I spend so much time trying to skim past the crap to get to the actual information that I know I'm missing things. It's one thing to lay things out - Step A, Step B, Step C or A means this, B means this, C means this it's another thing entirely to treat a user like a two-year old.
