I'd heard of these, but never seen pricing. The topic came up a while
back on inet-access, and some @cisco.com people responded that the 36x0
was really more of a dialup access server than T1 router. You can really
do 4 T1's, 2 ether, and that much third party RAM for about $7k? That
would be more ports/$ than a PM3 solution. A simiarly equipped 4500M
added up to at least $10k. Where did you get the 3620?

Here, it's actually cheaper to get a T1 than use ISDN for 24/7 links. We
used to have $50/$100/month personal/business pricing. Damn tariff
changes. Now I hear HellSouth wants to impose a new several dollar per
line charge on ISPs that have call forward on no-answer on their hunt
group lines. To me, that really reeks of "we're getting into the ISP
market, how can we really screw the competition?"
