Are the seams sealed and if so, how? What type of eVent is this...the 2 layer or the 3 layer? I am thinking of using this as my "tent" for hiking trips. Any suggestion as to how to keep my pack dry...I have a pack cover but that only covers the sides and top, not the part that is facing my back when I put on the pack.

All seams are sealed with tape. Not sure if it is 2 or 3 layer. If your pack is empty you can stuff it under your feet for extra insulation and cushion. Unless of course you're like the rest of us, and your pack isn't completely empty, you don't really have any place to put the pack. Best you could do is put the cover on, lay it frame side (which is against your back) down and hope for the best. Or pack a trash bag. I was looking to get this, but then the Fly Creek came out, and ended up going with that instead. Only 2 oz more, I can sit up, and have limited room to store your shoes and pack.
