It kinda sounds like you are looking for hay in a haystack. Each of these is
quite a broad subject. Take the cisco question for example. Do you want to
learn about IOS? Routing protocols? RADIUS? hardware? etc. Any of these
could probably merit a lengthy technical discussion on thier own.

For starters, you can try:
http://java.sun.com
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/home/home.htm
http://www.w3.org/XML/

Each of these sites has loads of useful info, but the quantity can be
daunting. Within each category there are countess sub-categories.

For slighlty more down to earth explanations, trade magazines migh be a good
source. There are too many to mention here. Some that come to mind are
eweek, javaPro, eetimes, and so on.

The RFC pages might also come in quite handy (http://www.ietf.org/rfc.html).

I wouldn't know what to charge for these things. No help there.
