cio claims for the 720s and MPLS:
WS-SUP720		WS-SUP720-3B		WS-SUP720-3BXL
no			700vrfs, 350 routes/vrf	1024vrfs, 700 routes/vrf

So then the question is, are your vrfs really limited to those numbers of 
routes, or are you limited to a vrfs*routes product, and can have some 
really big (like full internet routes) vrf routing tables if you only use 
a few vrfs?
