Laparoscopic banding

Does anyone do a lot of these procedures and have some good reference sites bookmarked that they'd care to share?  I'm stumped by the same ESL that got me yesterday with the Echelon stapler.  I can't tell if he's saying 10 band or thin band here.  I don't even know if there is such a thing as a 10 band!!!
