This book came to me in much better condition that it was stated. It did take the full 14 days to get to me but that is what it said it was going take. Guess I was getting spoiled by some of the others who sent the item so quickly. Would order from them again.

I’ve only had my new iTouch for a few days but I already do love it. It was really easy to set up e-mail and internet with my home wireless program and I like the way the e-mail program works with AOL. The only thing I haven’t found yet is how to access my address book, if it is actually available. I was disappointed that I couldn’t charge the battery with my Bose dock that accepts my earlier iPod. I was also disappointed that I couldn’t import videos I shot with my digital camera. The iTouch doesn’t seem to recognize the file format. I do have CuCuSoft which converts videos for iPod and I’m hoping it works the way it did for my older iPod. I am disappointed that you can’t buy a machine like this that allows you to use free WiFi and have a cell phone in one device without paying for a data plan, but for now this machine is the best product out there for these purposes. I love how beautifully my photo collection is displayed, including the ability to rotate the device to best accomodate landscape/portrait shots. And the speaker for playing music or any other video file is amazing for such a small device. It actually sounds better than the speaker on my wife’s laptop. I can’t wait to search for aps as there is some really cool stuff available. The free WiFi finder is one of the first I’m going to download. I tried to import my calendar and contacts from my Palm Pilot, Tungsten E, but since I went from Windows XP to Vista my Palm desktop can no longer save those files in a format that can be exported to iPod. So I’m going to have to re-create everthing manually. What a shame software designers don’t think about this stuff. Overall, however this is one amazing machine and I can’t wait to spend more time using it.

I’m gearing up for the JNCIA/S exams, so have just bought the JNCIA book. In addition, I have the Complete reference too.

As a history thing, I haven’t been that impressed with Sybex revision books – mainly from a Cisco perspective. This book however seems to be a step away from the norm – which is quite refreshing.

A CD is included (like all the similar Cisco Press books for CCNA/CCDA/CCNP/CCDP). You get flash cards, 100’s of exam questions, study guides, a palm/pocketPC revision app & the bonus of a pdf covering the entire book (aka Cisco) !

At the front of the book is a detachable pull-out study guide which recommends reading certain chapters for different parts of the exam. When quizzed, the author certainly wasnt denying the fact that it could almost be a hint at what you will be tested on.

Book is split into sections (naturally) which run through the following;

Chapter 1: The Components of a Juniper Networks Router Chapter 2: Interfaces Chapter 3: Protocol-Independent Routing Chapter 4: Routing Policy Chapter 5: The Routing Information Protocol (RIP) Chapter 6: Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) Chapter 7: Intermediate System to Intermediate System (IS-IS) Chapter 8: Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) Chapter 9: Multicast Chapter 10: Firewall Filters Chapter 11: Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS)

Differences between the JNCIA and the Complete ref are;

JNCIA has multicast. JNCIA has CD. Complete ref has a lot more about the ‘boxes’. Complete ref has intro to VPN (but not much). Complete ref is a lot heavier. Complete ref has more configuration examples.

If you’re thinking of revising (and if you haven’t got the complete ref) then this is the book to go for. Combine this with Routing TCP/IP, a glance through the most excellent Juniper tech pdf’s, hands-on the box and the Boson software exam guides ….. you should breeze through..

On the whole I am impressed with the book. Its straight to the point, tells you what you need to learn to pass the

Anytime I am bombarded with “You HAVE to read this!”- I am often skeptical. Typically, these books will turn out to be sappy love stories or trite stories with annoying self-help undertones. The Help is neither. Instead, this novel is compelling, well-written, and should be regarded as a contemporary stalwart of “Southern” literature.

This intricately written novel is set in the 1960s in Jackson, Mississippi. The Help focuses on the lives of several young women, their hired “help” and the racial lines that exist. The relationships between the women and their housekeepers vary, and Stockett explores the complexities inherent in these relationships, as well as those between the friends, the friends and their families, children, etc. I found the three narrators to be uniquely written and their voices resonate well throughout their respective chapters.

If you liked Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood, then this is a sure thing for you. For once, I’m glad to have had a recommended book be a good one!
Transition Networks CPSMP 210

To put this in perspective I am 81. When I was first introduced to this game my thought was, this is for children. When I started playing the tennis game I found I was getting an enjoyable aerobic workout. I have since purchased my own Wii sports package game and have truly enjoyed the game and the health benefits derived from it. I would highly recommend this for all ages. The only reason I rated the game over all at 4 stars is that I wish they had made the game so it could be played one on one as well as they have it now with two people on each side.
