Once upon a time NOT a LE employee shaped the electrons to say...
, this begs the question, how many WAN cards can a PM3 take? More than
>1? 2? 6?

As I've said here before - it will accept ONE WAN card. More than one
will not be recognized.

>And now further how does it handle doing say 3 T1 multihomes?

You could use both base ports and a WAN card and do it. Should work fine.

>If it does do this will it require more than 32MB? Will there be a plug-in
>card for more memory?

I doubt it, we've run 4 FULL BGP feeds in less than 16MB in testing.
Even if the number of routes on the net doubled, you wouldn't hit 32MB.
It isn't a linear relationship.
