just received an e-mail from PADI there may be a misprint on some RDP's received from October 2002 to February 2003. If you received any version of the RDP during this time contact either your vendor or PADI directly. Probably just a small printing mistake (hey I wonder if these will become collectors items, hmmmmmm), but you should look into it if you got your RDP after this period.

NICE, good thing I use a computer and my tables are merely back-up to it :D I'll ask my instructor this weekend if I remember ;)
 
Heard on the news this morning (yes, they put such things on the news in Miami) that some Uwatec computers were recalled too. Not sure which ones.

Found @ http://www.cdnn.info/recall/recall_padi/recall_padi.html . Funny that I couldn't actually find any details on the PADI website! :)

PADI Recreational Dive Planner Recall

We've recently discovered printer errors in certain Recreational Dive Planners (RDPs). The problems may appear in six (6) versions of the RDP, including both air and enriched air tables. Our printer is working diligently with us to correct his error.

These tables may be included in Open Water and Enriched Air Crew Paks, book and table combinations, CD-ROM combinations and alacart tables shipped between 1 October 2002 and 31 January 2003. Please note that not all RDPs you may have received during this period contain printer errors.

While analysis of the problems shows that the risk of injury from the errors is remote, for the sake of safety, we feel a broad approach to this issue should be taken. We ask that you immediately check your existing inventory and remove any RDPs you received from PADI with the product numbers and production codes listed below. The product number and production code is generally located on the bottom right hand corner on the back of the table. The product number and production code consist of a series of numbers and letters resembling: Product No. 60049 XXXPDJ2.

There may also be a revision date (Rev 10/02) and/or version number (Version 1.0) listed. These numbers are inconsequential. In checking the production code for inaccurate tables, please ignore the first three digits and only check the last four.

Product Number Description Production Code

60049 RDP, Enriched Air 32% XXXPDJ2, XXXPDK2,
Table, Imperial XXXPDL2, XXXPDA3

61049 RDP, Enriched Air 32% XXXPDJ2, XXXPDK2,
Table, Metric XXXPDL2, XXXPDA3

60053 RDP, Enriched Air 36% XXXPDJ2, XXXPDK2,
Table, Imperial XXXPDL2, XXXPDA3

61053 RDP, Enriched Air 36% XXXPDJ2, XXXPDK2,
Table, Metric XXXPDL2, XXXPDA3

66054 RDP, Table, Imperial XXXPDJ2, XXXPDK2,
English XXXPDL2, XXXPDA3

66055 RDP, Table, Metric XXXPDJ2, XXXPDK2,
English XXXPDL2, XXXPDA3

If you have RDPs with the product numbers and production codes listed above in your inventory, please notify your PADI Sales Representative at once. And, as previously stated, please remove these RDPs from your inventory immediately. Upon notification from you, we will issue call tags for the return of the misprinted RDPs and send out replacements.

We will be notifying divers certified after 01 October 2002 via the PADI web site, email and other means. They will be directed to bring their misprinted RDPs into PADI Dive Centers/Resorts for free exchange. We ask for your assistance by including this information in your newsletters and any other correspondence that you have with your customers.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you and your customers. If you have questions regarding this notice please contact your Sales Representative (2440) or an Educational Consultant (2540) at PADI (+1 800-729-7234 or +1 949-858-7234).
