Cisco Live!TelePresence, IOS XR, CCNA Simulator, and Online Flash Cards a big hit at Cisco Live!

Notes from Doug Ingersoll, Executive Marketing Manger for Cisco Press:

Cisco Press recently returned from the Cisco Live show in San Francisco, where Cisco celebrated 20 years of Networkers. While many attendees have returned home with their cherished appreciation night hats (Devo hats, for those keeping score), many also came home with more carry-on weight than when they started. New technology titles on TelePresence, Web 2.0, and IOS XR were popular, but the big stars of the show were software titles like the CCNA Network Simulator and the Cert Flash Cards Online for CCNA and CCNA Concentrations.

Search for these products in the Cisco Press store.

If you didn't make it to the show, catch up on Cisco Live video recaps and access 3 FREE Rough Cuts! Visit www.ciscopress.com/ciscolive and register today.
