Hello All,
Its a good thought to create a study Group of the people persuing CFA Level 1 , in June2010. I applied for the same and will give the exams from the Exam Centre in Zurich.
FYI, there is a institute which provides coaching and also some study material for CFA. Although the material are a little bit expensive for an individual but i think if 3-4 people living near by and can join and share, then the study material are good and seems to helpful to prepare for the CFA . You can check at this link.

Also, for Calculators, i have checked on the site and seems that Texas (BA2) seems to be better than HP since HP has some additional feature but not worth with almost 2.5 times of the cost of Texas. Both of them can be ordered online. This is my personal view.
Also, if anybody have any information to share, or if any thing which i can share with you, please write me at rahulgupta45 @ gmail.com
Best of Luck for the exams.
Regards
Rahul Gupta
