Get a copy of Flying The Beech Bonanza by John C. Eckalbar. It's a comprehensive analysis of the Bonanza's handling and performance characteristics. It covers the whole line, old and new, straight-tail and V-tail.

Probably one of the best suggestions so far.
Not sure what you weigh, but with me in at 235lbs, W&B isn't as big of a deal. The POH will list the baggage compartment moment at 154, which is all the way AFT. Keeping heavy items out of the baggage compartment and it is even less an issue.
The Bo is very light on the controls and the new sight picture will take some getting use to. Coming from a Cessna line, it looks like you're in a dive when you are flying straight and level. It's also very sensitive in pitch.
Get used to flying the Bo slow. If you're light, 70 knots on short final, otherwise 80 does just fine. The landings can be so silky smooth, you'll leave with a smile on your face every time.
IIRC, the S35 has almost identical numbers to my V35 in terms of gear speed, flaps, Va. To slow down, start dialing back the MP a few extra miles out, a little extra back pressure on the nose, drop the gear.
