I would aree with Mark the "Inside Lightwave" series is a fantastic starting place. If you are using version 7 of lightwave or if you've changed the keyboard shortcuts to Lightwave version 7 stylee, then this document could prove useful:

The other thing you have to be aware of is that Lightwave has two separate packages, one for modelling one for the positioning and rendering side of things which is something a little different to XSI.

Since you already have had some experience in 3D modelling, it shouldn't be too hard for you to get running. Is there any particular aspect you need a tutorial on?

Here is a good starting point:
