As you know, this was RunRev's first attempt at book publishing. There was a steep learning curve, complicated by the fact that RR lost its main publishing-knowledgeable staffer (Ro Nagey) in the post-MacWorldSF changes that had to be made for economic reasons. So there have been some slips and delays.
Part of the original deal as I understood it was that RR would prepare the CD since they were responsible for the printed book while I was responsible for the eBook, which, of course, has all the examples in it automagically.
Recently, Kevin and I have been discussing this issue a lot, along with other members of the RunRev team. I have agreed to compile all the sample apps into one place so that people who bought the printed book can download them in one compressed file. I hope to have this done and ready for download next week.
While it's clearly too late to *include* a CD with the book, the original idea for the CD was to include a version of Rev plus the stuff in my book. Since we now have only the samples and book code to include, a CD would be overkill in any event.
Stay tuned. This will get fixed.

When I bought Volume 1 it was announced and advertised with a CD.That was

However I have not seen anybody else complain.
Others have complained, including me. Only to be told uh, well, there is no
CD and no, we don't know nothin bout example files.
