If you want to make it really useful, release a version for the palm
pilot.....then you wouldn't have to worry about carrying around a bunch of
little books, just look it up on the palm. You can also get a terminal
emulator for the palm and cables to connect to the console, who needs to
carry around a bulky laptop anyway. btw, does anyone have the Cisco ios
command reference for the palm?

talking with O'Reilly and Associates about the possibility of publishing a
series of Cisco-related pocket references. We are trying to determine
whether or not these pocket references would be a good idea. O'Reilly's
current pocket references are about 7"x4" in size and get up to ~100 pages.
They are very handy for carrying information with you, wherever you may be
working any given day.

to that of the Cisco command references, but we would write the descriptions
ourselves. Of course, the books would also be smaller and portable, and
each one would have a more limited focus.
