The problem with the 2500 images for 12.2T is that in uncompress form
they are taking more then 16MB of RAM.
I would not hold my breath for a C5RSM or C5RSFC image either. They are
pretty much dead products in Cisco's eyes.

Not that there has been a release of non-T 12.2 for the C5RSFC either.
(Which makes me massively unhappy. It's a nice piece of hardware for
the ISP market, but is not supported very well).

For the 2500, there have been promises on the IPv6-beta list (there was
no
12.1T-based IPv6 beta either!), but nothing either.

Oh, the software is there (since today), only "not for all platforms".
...and I'm not sure what some of the images will do to a 1600 - there's
an c1600-bk8nor2sy-mz.122-2.T.bin with 6.1 Mb of image size - right now,
my 1600 runs c1600-sy56i-mz.121-2.bin, which is 3.8 Mb sized, and has
only
2 Mbytes of RAM left - add over two Mbytes of *gzip'ed* IOS size and
wonders will happen... (the 1600 has 18Mb of RAM, and can't go
further).
