Going for the CCDA plunge

Hi Guys & Gals,

I've decided to side step away from MS for a little while, and do something different. I've decide to do the CCDA. I guess what I want to know is... Any advice?

Currently there doesn't seem to be alot of threads under the design heading so... lets hear the voices (the ones in my head are loud enough thank you )

Interesting choice.

Any specific reasons why this rather than the CCNA?

Don't really know that much about this one, can anyone highlight the main differences, considering on the Cisco site it says that CCNA level knowledge is required?

Any reason why a CCDA instead of a CCNA?

Well I guess I just want to do something a little different. No big deal about it, I've only just ordered the training material yesterday, however I may consider the CCNA if work will pay for it, as our local tech college is offering the OCR IPRO Cisco course of £498 (a six month course).
