Today, from Cisco, the smallest router you'll get a 10Gbps 
Ethernet port on is the Cisco ASR1000 series. Mind you, 
though, FCS for this box isn't until about May. Also, this 
box is oversubscribed as the current switch fabric is 
10Gbps.

From Juniper, the smallest M-series box you'll get the same 
port on is the M120 platform.

You could also look at smaller switches from both vendors, 
but if you plan on taking full BGP feeds from your upstream 
providers, this might be an issue.

Cheers,

Mark.
