I'm actually struggling with "Design Patterns" now (tho' I understand less than half of it). Thanks for the other references... Amazon, here I come. ;^)
Actually, in this case, the point I was trying to make is in the book: a "potential disadvantage" of the Factory Method is "that clients might have to subclass the Creator class just to create a particular ConcreteProduct object" and that "the client must now deal with another point of evolution". That's pretty much my concern here. I want the creation of the business-level components to be drop-dead, stupid simple - the person using them shouldn't have to care what DB is in use. Furthermore the same application should be able to switch DBs/persistence layer implementations without recoding.
