2. Extended IDSM-1 Signature Support and Migration Program
The current end-of-signature support date for IDSM-1 has been extended until August 1, 2004; an extension of 3 months from the previous deadline of April 30, 2004.
In addition to extending the last signature support date, the IDSM-1 to IDSM-2 trade-in program will also be extended to July 31, 2004.
The IDSM-1 Trade-In Program allows customers to get $10,000 towards the purchase of an IDSM-2 by turning in their IDSM-1. This credit is applied after the discount on the IDSM-2 is taken. The list price of the IDSM-2 is $29,995 so this credit provides substantial value towards the purchase of the newer, and far more powerful IDSM-2. The program is administered by the Cisco Technology Migration Program (TMP) and can be located at:

This program cannot be combined with any other IDSM-2 promotion.
