Well currently your non-modular gigabit switch options look like this:

2960G - Layer 2 only
3560G - Layer 3 support
3750G - Layer 3 support + StackWise
4948  - Layer 3, very high speed/density, dual power supplies

Hopefully this helps you sort through the options on Cisco's web site a
little more easily.
