		<description><![CDATA[You may recall Chris was the winner of our recent NBA Sweepstakes in which our online fans and followers got the opportunity to enter to win the chance of a lifetime – meet Bill Russell live via Cisco ūmi.  We got the chance to catch up with Chris and hear what he had to say about the experience.  For starters, Chris had the same experience that many others have when they first try out ūmi. “I didn’t even realize I was in his house until he moved around and I saw the photos on his wall.”  On the man himself, Chris was effusive with praise, noting “He was very easy to talk to and makes you feel like he’s someone you’ve talked to before. Very casual.”]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last month, we partnered with the NBA to give our online fans and followers the opportunity to enter to win the chance of a lifetime – meet NBA legend Bill Russell Jetson-style on home telepresence system Cisco ūmi. In addition to a conversation with Bill, participants were also entered to win a ūmi telepresence system, plus one year of free service, for them and a friend! We’re excited to announce Chris P. from Los Angeles as the winner of our Meet an NBA Legend Sweepstakes! We’re looking forward to a great conversation between Chris and Bill.

Wondering what questions Chris is going to ask a twelve-time All-Star Champion? Here is one of his questions "What was the driving force that helped you win 11 NBA Championships and 2 NCAA Championships?"]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The perfect present for dad this Father’s Day is Cisco ūmi.  And with the current buy one ūmi, get one FREE offer, it’s also a perfect present for you, too.  Now through June 19th (this Sunday!) take advantage of this limited offer by clicking on a logo below to start shopping!

NBA Legend Bill Walton and his son Luke, a forward for the Los Angeles Lakers, are using Cisco ūmi to stay in touch between their homes in San Diego and Los Angeles, respectively.  Luke alludes to Father’s Day when he tells Bill that he’ll be getting a Father of the Year award at the end of the month.  It makes any of us not living near dad at least a little mushy!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Undoubtedly, the best way to spend Father’s Day with dad is at one of his favorite places.  We would always have a big family dinner. What are your traditions?  Do you go hiking?  Go to the movies?  Sit at home and watch golf?  Regardless, there’s nothing like making dad feel like a king for a day doing whatever he likes to do best.

For those of us who don’t live close to home, technology is bringing us closer than ever before so that we can spend time with dad face-to-face.  Sure, we can’t eat his famous burgers virtually (not yet at least) but we can catch up and tell him we love him through video calling.  And with Cisco ūmi, you can tell him Happy Father’s Day from your couch in high-def on your HDTV.]]></description>

One of my friends plans to ūmi with his grandfather who was in the Merchant Marines during WWII. He loves umi as a way to keep in touch with his grandpa in between visits, and will especially enjoy the call this weekend when they get to bond over old stories. ]]></description>

Stay Connected: The number one reason people love to use ūmi is because they can keep in touch with family, friends – old and new, and colleagues. Whether the person lives down the street or on the other side of the country, they come through your HDTV clearly and vividly, almost as if they were sitting in your own living room with you.]]></description>

Kevin, a forward for the Oklahoma City Thunder, praises Cisco ūmi’s ability to keep him closer to his mom: “For a second I had to stop myself because I wanted to get up and give her a hug.”

In never-before-seen videos exclusive for ūmi fans, check out how Kevin and his mom are using Cisco ūmi to stay connected despite Kevin living halfway across the U.S.  And stay tuned later this spring for additional content created just for ūmi fans from Cisco’s partnership with the NBA.]]></description>
