I don't think it's complete game over. Aside from PoE, there's some
fantastic new features that are available that will let it hang on for a
while.
For example, I have a customer that wants VPLS without flexwan.
I have another customer that is using the 6500 for a decent amount of
MPLS "stuff". I let them know MPLS L3VPN was coming to the N7K. They
said "congrats".
