Actually, I use Cisco Press books that teach you the subject or help you
brush up on the technology. I don't read books or peruse practice tests
(Boson, CCNA study guides, Exam Cram...etc) that have only one goal in mind:
Get you to buy their book that teaches you how to pass the test. Why else
would Mr. Lammle write a book covering the new exam only? This is what I
termed 'dilution'.  Books and cheat-sheet exams that cover only passing an
exam have always been the cause of certification dysfunction.

And also I believe that Mr. Lammle signed an agreement when he took the
test. Revealing the contents of the exam in a book is a violation of that
agreement. :')
