    I have had an invite to take this beta exam, and since the exam is free I fugured nothing to lose. Is anyone else planning on taking the plunge? I know it is fairly obscure, but still a few extra letters on the CV and all...

    if it's free then i am tempted, but i cannot see it helping my career or the career of many people to be honest.

    Fair enough. The only real reason I am taking it is that it is free. I come from a printing background (job paid for the PDI+ for example), so it is a bit more justified.

    I'm taking this this morning - should be interesting. Free was pretty much the motivator!

    Too late for that I am afraid. The exam was the beta for the new version coming out. They invited people who have previously taken the CompTIA exams to take the beta and feedback regarding the questions.

    No problem. Are you still planning on doing the CDIA?

    Material for this one is fairly scarce, the only book I have been able to find has been one by axzo press, but it is a bit pricey. Found that the best price is from the CompTIA website (for the UK anyway).
