Thanks for your help.

However, it seems they have no interest in doing that anymore.

May 09, 2008 7:30:51 Because the transition to 4e and the transition to DDI have shifted priorities along the way. The most recent announcement regarding Dungeon and Dragon magazines indicates:
New articles, features, and adventures will roll out every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
The entire month’s content will be collected into a full-sized digital magazine.
D&D Insider’s free beta period coincides with the launch of 4th Edition.
When the initial beta period comes to an end, subscription rates will go into effect.
Initially, they’re going to roll out a special, limited-time introductory pricing offer.
A lot less pessimistic of a response than you might receive from others. You might even say it is a more accurate response, relying on actual information from the publisher.
