I'm not concerned that legitimate students with CCIE level
knowledge and ability will still pass and students shouldn't be concerned
either. To that end the attention given to this section of the exam is
disproportionate and will hopefully abate soon.

Totally agreed with Jared. Cisco should have done it ages ago
I bet, there won't be as many R&S CCIE as you are seeing these days.

Why Voice CCIE are under 1K? (apart from the fact its tough! and was release
late).

Every learns from the mistakes they make, so is the Cisco.
