in CCNA & CCENT
I currently have the Odom books for 640-811 and 640-821. Has there been a significant change enough change in the material to warrant getting newest version of these books?

    I would get the new books if you can. I never took the old test but from what I understand ISDN is gone and some basic wireless and security were added to the exam and probably other things I can't think of right now.

    About 25% of the CCNA was updated, upgraded, changed, or dropped. Plus the INTRO/ICND1 exams don't exactly map to the new ICND1/ICND2 exams -- so you'd be at a big disadvantage if you tried to use just the INTRO book for the new ICND1 exam. The old INTRO book and some of the old ICND book could get you through the current ICND1 exam for the CCENT.
