They may all run IS-IS but the latter 2 are not cheap.  The ME4924 will 
run you about $56k list and the ME6524-24SFP will run you $59 once you 
put RAM in the box and get the Advanced IP featureset.  The ME3400 is 
not too badly priced though.  I have 2 ME6524s (copper) and like them. 
I replaced one of them on RMA a few hours ago due to a bad port.  Other 
than that they really haven't given me any problems.  I'm using them as 
the core routers in a small POP.
