I haven't actually eval'd it, but I did see it in operation at the Brocade
Conference earlier this month.  You are correct, it is the i2000.  Some cool
features include the large LCD panel for control as well as performance
monitoring, built in and hot-swap pathlight units, a ton of SNMP capability,
etc.  This unit seems to be very well engineered.

Greg:

Have you eval'd this unit?

I just downloaded a white paper from their site on this unit, called i2000, 
that's the same one right?

Has anyone eval'd this?
