Here is an EVENEWS.com interview about the EVE CCG from a few months ago. It probably doesn't have more information than the E-ON article, but its something for the information hungry.

A little more info I've found on the Intertron...
Someone from gamevortex.com got a look at the CCG at E3.
EVE Online: The Collectible Card Game
Originally by: Robert Perkins, gamevortex.com
The programming team at CCP has been very busy working on the upcoming mega-expansion, The Path To Kali. While this expansion also involves a lot of 3D model upgrades, Reynir Hardarson (Founder of EVE Online) managed to find time for most of the art department to work on a side project he's been wanting to do - a Collectible Card Game.
I have seen the artwork for the cards in PDF format, and have to tell you they are quite beautiful. So far, 250 cards have been designed for the EVE Online CCG, with the possibility of introducing some additional cards with the launch of "The Path To Kali" - an upcoming expansion for EVE Online.
When I was talking with Magnus Bergsson, the CMO of CCP Games, he admitted to me that he typically didn't play Collectible Card Games, but that even he found the EVE Online CCG to be fun to play.
The cards are being manufactured by the same company that does Magic: The Gathering and, as the cards have just gone into production last week, you can look for them to hit store shelves sometime around August 2006.

What about Eve beer, or Eve chocolate? Perhaps a RL eve-mobile. If people are prepared to buy iy and it means we don't have to fork out for expansions SOE style then I'm happy.

Maybe I'm just a cynical SOB, but what the hell. CCGs, Eve on my non-existant PDA, voice chat, a magazine... If CCP spent their resources on the actual game itself they wouldn't need all this add-on stuff that a lot of people won't want. I know it sounds like a silly idea but why not try for a relatively bug free game before you branch out in a hundred directions. Everytime I see something new in development that isn't on the game itself all i can think of is another bug goes unfixed... :(

An instruction book! From CCP? I hope they got someone else to write it.
I don't know anyone in RL that has ever heard of Eve, let alone plays it so I don't see myself buying these to play with. I did not get the magazine and have not ordered anything from the store because of the shipping rates. Anyone been able to get the link to work to see what the shipping is going to be on these puppies to the US?
While I would like to get some to see the art work and such and I don't think the price is out of line for such cards I think I would rather just extend my power of 2 account for a year instead.

Yes, because all the DEVS responsible for c.racking bugs and code fixing are the ones who said "**** the real game, lets waste time on a CCG".

The two starter packs seem to be based around the two different main conflicts in Eve (Gallente vs Caldari, Amarr vs Minmatar). Can you play a game with 2 people using just 1 starter deck, one person as Amarr and one as Minmatar, or would you need a starter pack each? Also, will the booster packs have cards from all 4 races at random, or are there different sets, one for each conflict? Also, can you mix cards from different races, or do you have to build a deck of all the same race cards?

From what I have read in interviews and in E:ON etc you can play 1v1, 2v2, ffa etc so just 1 stater pack is needed if you just want to play 1v1. Boosterpacks have random cards, they are not race specific (so even if you buy the gallante/caldari box you will most likely get amarr and minmatar card as well as caldari and gallante in the booster packs.
Considering I haven't read the rules I can't say for sure but I would guess it's possible to play mixed races etc too, you probably don't have to play 100% caldari but can mix caldari and minmatar and such deck would have it's own strenths and weaknesses.

People usualy say CCG is kids games, because all CCGs they know or heard of are basicly Magic, Pokemon or YuGiHo (or what ever it is typed), however people seem to forget or simply don't know (can't say I blame them) the countless CCGs that are/were around.
I for once, currently own a deck of BattleTech CCG (one of the most strategic games I ever seen), Magic (from the old times, 5th and below) Warhammer 40k CCG, but I also played NetHack, Legend of the Five Rings, Vampire. And even I have a very reduced knowledge of all CCGs that have been around in the last, I don't know, 10 years?
Most of these games can be insanly strategic if well build and cards can have numerous stats and value all that come into play (/me remembers BattleTech CCG).
So if you think CCGs are kids games, wait until CCP sells stand alone starter packs and then buy one and try it out.
I know I wount find any players to play, but I'm ordering them for my love to CCP and colletion value as I'm a sucker for well designed CCGs.

I don't know about a CCG game, but I'd buy a regular playing card deck, or two, with EvE graphics on it.
Ships ( maybe limited to capital ships ) as the face cards ( Titan as ace or king? Carrier as Queen ), Races as the suits, fighters ( and/or drones ) or race icon, as the symbols ( the diamond, heart .... )

EVE: The pen & paper RPG
I'd play that...
Although the price for the CCG is directly in line with other CCGs on the market (a small bit cheaper in fact), it is just another one in countless hundreds of barely heard of IPs that have flooded the CCG market since the success of Pokemon. If it has been on cartoon network there is likely a CCG for it.

I used to be sooo addicted to Magic The Gathering. Luckily I was able to escape.
I'll be damned if I get sucked into another TGC.
I'll prolly just try out one of the preconstructed decks. But that's it. I swear, no booster packs!
Story of four miserable years of my life. 
I'm incredibly tempted to look....just one megapack. That's all, no more...I promise! I won't purchase another. Ok, maybe two. I'll have to check my credit card balance.
Then again, I do have to pick up that engagement ring sometime soon. Maybe I can put it off for another month?
