I will leave your comment as an idea for alternate control of the Jumper :)
There's a couple of good tutorial on per-pixel collision detection here:
http://xbox.create.msdn.com/en-US/education/catalog/tutorial/collision_2d_rectangle
and here:
http://www.andrewshough.com/development/per-pixel-collision-detection-in-2d-games/

Regarding A* - i will put that on the list, and make a tutorial on that in the not too far future. I am writing on two others right now :).

Kind regards - Jakob

private void CheckKeyboardAndUpdateMovement()
{
KeyboardState keyboardState = Keyboard.GetState();

if (keyboardState.IsKeyDown(Keys.Left)) { Movement -= Vector2.UnitX * .5f; }
if (keyboardState.IsKeyDown(Keys.Right)) { Movement += Vector2.UnitX * .5f; }
if (keyboardState.IsKeyDown(Keys.Space) && IsOnFirmGround())
{
if (!oldState.IsKeyDown(Keys.Space))
{
Movement = -Vector2.UnitY * 25;
}
}
else if (oldState.IsKeyDown(Keys.Space))
{
// Key was down last update, but not down now, so
// it has just been released.
}
oldState = keyboardState;
}

Also a question. Any chance of making per pixel collision instead..(a tutorial maybe)
And finally i would really like to learn A* path finding, you have any expertise on that maybe do an tutorial.
Well appreciate all you work thank you very much.
