Dave, I can help you out with this too.  

What is EXCELLENT is when you take the storyboard and remove all the top level 
views.  Then, create individual XIBs for each scene.  The viewController.h 
specifies that “if a view can not be found, an .xib with the same name of the 
class file will be looked for and will be loaded if found.”  I’ve seen this 
text in the viewController.h since 2009, if I recall correctly, so it’s not due 
to change any time soon.

I’ve got sample files already created that illustrate this concept pretty well.

Why it is nice is that you can use a storyboard as a skeleton, a screen by 
screen information flow and overview for your program and if your team is 
larger than just you there are no storyboard merge conflicts when more than one 
team member is adding parts to it.  

Please harass me offline and I will send this over to DaveLand.  

I hope it helps.  Cheers.
