Hi Milan,
Yes, since VPN3000 concetrator is announced EOS, it is very likely to be
removed from the CCIE lab exam.
We are presently working on this and will make an announcement when a
decision has been made. Meanwhile, it will continue to appear in the exam.
Regards,
Yusuf

Personally I think VPN3k would hold it's position for at least a year, or
maybe even two :)
