1. OODBs - references?

We are thinking of moving in the direction of OODBs
here at Motorola.  Some of the OO SW Eng guys talk
about them a bit (Jacobsen) but most of real DB stuff
I've seen is real academic.  Can anyone site some
references which CLEARLY discuss the differences
between OODB and RDB technology (no religious banter,
please)?  I'm particularly interested in Gemstone and
what support OODB _PRODUCTS_ (ie. out there now) have
for distributed queries, etc.

             Thanks much,
