CCIP.......Sure it smells like a new car. But if it doesnot require a hands on lab then it is just a few months away from turning into a paper cert. Perhaps you haven't looked at CCIE R/S closely but it does have Multicast on it and you can be sure you will be tested on it. But anyways I will stick to first comment without a vigrous lab it's worth will decrease with time as cramsites catch on to the test questions.
