Have you seen the Dive Into Python tutorial/book?

http://diveintopython.org/toc/index.html

It goes beyond just the basics... pretty much something for everyone in there. 
Even in the stuff that seems basic, there's often little tidbits that are 
good to know. Also it covers programming techniques which you may find 
interesting (if not useful) such as test driven development.
