Livingston created and manufactured the Cisco 1020 Access Router a
couple of years ago; it had an ethernet, console port, and PCMCIA modem
slot, like the OR-M, but used the Cisco 1000 series style case. It ran
ComOS with the command line interpreter modified to resemble IOS. (And
what fun it was to match our commands to their nearest IOS
equivalents! Don't try this trick at home, folks. :-) ) I don't know
if you can still buy them from Cisco; I know Livingston doesn't make
the 1020 anymore. Livingston still makes the OR-M.
