When i did it in 2007 we where each given an alladin pro that we wore on our pillar valve! I believe it was in case any of us had an accident they could use the computer as evidence and for any chamber crews and stuff. Though the instructors never really told us what they where or how to work them, they just said "here strap this to your tank".
We where expected to use an analog depth gauge and a watch+tables for doing all our dives. Though it may have been to do with the fact that there was no pool so we did all the training in drysuits jumping off the pontoon or walking down the local slip. Gosh i feel like an old granddad telling young whipper-snappers how it was in the good old days even though its only been 3 years.
I remember one guy had a depth timer on his watch that automatically counted his dive time digitally. We all thought he was a bit of a show-off with his futuristic gadgetry
I don't think the eRDP was ever mentioned at all, i only know of it because i saw a wee advert for it on the wall of a dive shop.
