Ah - that is a little bit different to what I had read about; I've never had a camera with either.

As you say though, the main thing is to remember to take shots with a good overlap - picking a feature about a third of the way across from one side and moving so it is now a third in from the other side is a good rule of thumb. This is particularly the case if using a fairly wide view, which tends to be more distorted at the edges (thus harder to line up without further manipulations).
