    I used cisco press' books by wendell odem. They have been great for me. I haven't, however, read the one from sybex.

    I'd recommend the CCNA Study guide by Todd Lammle. It think it's by Sybex.

    On a related note, has anyone used the Official CCNA (Wendel's) second edition and then went with third edition?

    I'm just curious if there are any major updates?

    Check out the previews on Google Books and see which you prefer. They're both great books and which you'll prefer is entirely subjective.

    I would use both. I read the Odom book and I'm now using the Sybex for my studies. Combining the two is a winning combination in my mind.

    That's what I'm going to do, use both. I also have the CBTnuggets and maybe some other training videos, maybe testout?

    I also have 3x 2950T's. 1x 1841, 1x 2501, and 4 2610xm's. Do you think my lab is suitable?

    I wouldn't say there is a better. It's more of a preference thing.
