Right stick serving seems to be the way to go if you want to hit big serves.

Practice may help as well as it is hard to get a rhythm playing a tiebreak.
Agreed. Hopefully more aces are in the retail build, but in a 7 point tiebreak it's hard to expect 3-4 aces a match. And Rafa and Roger are both lowly rated serves compared to Sampras and Roddick, so those guys may hit more aces.
