It's difficult for me to see, how CSCO could justify the premium for any volume order. Either sell at market or lose sale.
The 2 boxes not having exactly the same port count and features(9901 can do - or is suppose to be able to do - subscriber stuff - IPoE,PTA,LAC), this explains the difference. Add the fact that Cisco has customers that buy "Cisco and nothing else". And not everybody buys "enough" in order to get acceptable volume discounts.
Also it will never run eXR. I have no information, but I think it's reasonable to suspect the OS not being sold may receive decreasing amount of NRE. I wouldn't certainly spend my time writing code for product I'm not selling.
Agreed.
