Greg has laid out a great bit of information and I would like to add just
one possibility to the list of budget 10GE routers: Vyatta.  According to a
recent press release from that company
(http://www.vyatta.com/about/pressreleases.php?id=51) they offer a product
that is "2 to 3X higher performance at a cost savings of more than 75
percent" when compared to Cisco's 7200.

"Vyatta operates at Layer 3 wire speed across three Gigabit Ethernet
ports in full mesh when forwarding 512-byte frames or higher."

3x1 GE << 1x10 GE
