Hey Jake, threads long dead but I have one if you're still looking for info/pictures of it compressed down. I like to use mine in conjunction with a Grab-It 2 and a guide lid. Between the side straps, small center straps, and those other pieces that are always on the pack, you can either strap it down tight or basically just flatten it/wad it up under the grab-it and guide lid for a fairly tight bundle. Not as neat when compressed in daypack mode as other options maybe (like the fulcrum for example) but certainly works considering it's basically a big simple 500d/x-pac bucket with straps at it's core.
