Demorou, mas acabou por acontecer: a Cisco descontinuou o Cius, seu tablet voltado para o mercado corporativo.
Lançado em Maio de 2011, o tablet, que roda o sistema operacional Android, possui tela de 7 polegadas sensível ao toque, câmera HD (720p), suporte para redes sem fio 802.11a/b/g/n e 3G/4G, Bluetooth 3.0 e interoperabilidade com o Cisco TelePresence.
Além disso, ele traz uma segunda câmera com resolução de 5 megapixels e bateria com duração de até oito horas.
Um dos factores que contribuíram para a falta de sucesso do Cius é a estratégia BYOD (traga seu próprio aparelho, em uma tradução livre) adoptada por diversas empresas. Com isso os funcionários podem trabalhar usando seus próprios tablets, ao invés de soluções como o Cius.
Outro factor é o preço. O Cius custa cerca de US$ 750, enquanto que modelos concorrentes como o Galaxy Tab 2 custam bem menos.

It took, but it turned out: Cisco has discontinued Cius, a tablet aimed at the corporate market.
Launched in May 2011, the tablet, which runs the Android operating system has 7-inch touchscreen, camera, HD (720p), support for 3G/4G wireless 802.11a/b/g/n, Bluetooth 3.0 and interoperability with Cisco TelePresence.
In addition, he brings a second camera with 5 megapixel resolution and battery life of up to eight hours.
One of the factors that contributed to the lack of success of the strategy is Cius BYOD (bring your own equipment, with a translation) adopted by various companies. With that employees can work using their own tablets, rather than solutions like Cius.
Another factor is price. The Cius costs about $ 750, while competing models like the Galaxy Tab 2 cost far less.
