I will also give a +1 to Palo Alto, We replaced a pair of aging Nortel branded check points with a pair of PA 5020's. 
We are very pleased with them and I personally would recommend them as well. A lot deeper view into what's happening on 
the network as well. Rule creation is not bad either once yopu get the mind shift changed to zone / application based 
vrs just a port based FW.

We are looking into upgrading our Firewall. I was wondering if anyone had anything to offer in regards to what you are 
using and the pros/cons associated to it.

Thanks,
