I found it harder than I expected when I took it and I was pretty well prepared (I studied under a couple of Masters and a former BOG). My experience overall was very positive and my testers were very professional. They made me feel as much at ease as is possible in that situation. I’m starting to wade through the Masters stuff now and it is definitely a huge leap from CCI.
The written test was definitely tricky. I missed two and I remember one being exactly as you stated: I interpreted the question differently than what was intended. I think nerves got me on the second question and I started second guessing myself.
I got to meet David at an instructors seminar this spring and he is a very knowledgeable and personable guy.
It is available on the Podcast page.
I have a couple of the Seal Line dry bags and really like them. They are very light and best of all packable. For that reason, I don’t think that they would work very well as a pack unless they add more reinforcement. I am not too familiar with the packs, but if they are the same design as the dry bags, I can see where they would be uncomfortable.
I’ve been eyeing one of these (they were mentioned on the board some time ago).
As much as I like the online stuff, I like what Zinio is doing better. They put out DRM’d PDF versions that I can read anywhere. Don’t need a connection. I can make notes and highlight sections that I can refer to later. They don’t do multimedia yet, but it can’t be too far off. I would like to see the magazines available there as well as online.

*******EDIT
Guess I should check things out more thoroughly first. Didn’t see the download PDF link at first. If that stays it would be nice.
Zach, have you heard any push back because of readership reporting. It is my understanding that for marketing it is the norm to claim multiple readers for each issue sold. That probably won’t happen with digital copies.
******EDIT 2
I like the way they have implemented it.
