[c-nsp] copper 10/100 on WS-X6748-SFP using GLC-T or other?

Does anyone have any new info on this, such as if the WS-X6748-SFP is now 
able to do 10/100/1000 with the GLC-T?

Alternatively, are there non-Cisco RJ45 SFPs which can do 10/100 and can 
work with the WS-X6748-SFP?

While I am here, if you know of a Cisco Gold reseller who would like to 
provide the Seattle IX with at-cost SMARTnet for a 6509 in exchange for 
recognition, please privately let me know.

Thanks,
Chris
