Where is a good place to get started learning RealBasic? I have Visual Basic
6.0 as well. Should I begin learning VB and transfer my knowledge to
RealBasic? Are there any books out on RealBasic?

I'd suggest that a good place to start learning RB would be to simply get
it, get the tutorial, get some sample apps, join the mailing list(s), and
go for it!  Some of your VB knowledge will transfer, and there's a program
available at the RB site to pre-process some of your VB code to fit better
into RB.  Matt Neuberg of TidBITS has completed his manuscript of a RB
book, but it's on hold while his publisher apparently debates whether to
go ahead and publish or wait until RB 2.0 is released (any time now).
