Reference implementation of ASP.NET MVC using ViewModels, EditModels, and AutoMapper

Question

A simple question: is there a good reference implementation of using ASP.NET MVC with an ORM, ViewModels, and EditModels (ideally using Automapper)?

I understand the benefits of using these purpose-specific models, but haven't been too happy with the result of the code I've written to use these so far. A simple reference application showing how and where these aspects are applied in the MVC workflow would be great.

Jimmy Bogard gave an excellent presentation at MVCConf which is worth checking out.

watching it right now, and so far I have to say that it doesn't explicitly answer my question--but his code shows the answers when you look hard enough! I'm at 4x Post-It notes of timestamps with 20 minutes left :-D – Uro

Jimmy's "Controllers on a Diet" talk turned out to be about the best example I ever found--although his talk wasn't specifically about my question, his code and it's path of execution showed how it's done and turned out to be a very good reference. Thanks! – Uro

Not sure if it's a reference implementation, but it tries to collect good ones.
