I would suggest a 7206 too.

That would enable running VPN through a bunch of Catalyst 1900, and have
power to spare when needed.

Running VPN is a very neat way of geting a good server backbone.

I dont think that the price is too hefty. Leasing one with a 100 mbit
interface and some E1/T1s are around $1000 per unit.

A 3600 is $400 per month or something like that.

I wouldent recommending running trafficshaping or VPN through a 3600.
