I seem to remember reading at some point that the compiled issues of Dungeon and Dragon would be available to non-subscribers for a premium at the end of each month. Is this still the plan? If so, where does one go to purchase said?

There was announced a plan to sell back issues for about 3.00 USD, however that plan has not been implemented.

Last news on this is that they hope to get that up soon, but not ready yet.

I've got a revision of my original question:

I'm asking for $60 for Christmas, specifically earmarked for DDI (because there's no way I'm spending my own money on this thing yet). I have some particular interest in the content of Dragon issues 369 and 370. Are these back issues available for purchase by subscribers? Or have they just vanished into the Great Dark?

Or, in a best-case scenario, have they remained available for free download while Wizards gets their ducks in a row?

Any feedback from current subscribers or WotC folk would be appreciated.

They are still available, and should be up until a time where WotC has enabled the buying of individual issues.

So, theoretically, I could subscribe for one month, download all of the e-issues of Dungeon and of Dragon, and cancel my subscription?

That would almost make up for the lack of a physical copy.

At the moment, yes you can do that. However they are planning to eventually remove this loophole.
