First of all, yes, twisted is what you're looking for,
Here the basics are explained,  it really helps a lot to read them
carefully, many questions you might and will have are explained along
with the underlying concepts of event-based/async programming, which are
important to understand to use twisted correctly:
http://twistedmatrix.com/projects/core/documentation/howto/index.html

you find examples here, and there are many in the download/checkout itself:
http://twistedmatrix.com/projects/core/documentation/examples/index.html

and if you're looking for "real world" apps using twisted... uups can't
find that page right now (does it still exist?) ahem, look at divmod.org :)
