If I normally purchase direct from Cisco, I would for this as well.  Most 
people purchase through a VAR.  Do you have a Cisco account team at least?
If so, I'd think you'd have access to a pre-sales SE who can vet the 
configuration you want to purchase, etc...

If not, let me know what part of the country you're in and I can make some 
calls to Cisco if you want.  If so, send me your contact info offline and 
I'll try to locate someone from Cisco.
