Chris,

        You can skip the CCNA and CCNP exams and just go for CCIE, there
is nothing wrong with that. You will however still have to learn all
the technologies that are covered in the CCNA and CCNP tracks anyways.
What I would do if you want to skip NA and NP is to read through all
those books and try out their examples before moving onto CCIE level
material. Here is a list of materials that we recommend for CCIE
preparation: http://www.internetworkexpert.com/resources/books.htm.

Good luck in your preparation,
