I am thinking that as the ME3400 is more of a "Catalyst" switch than a 
router, it won't be supported (or if it does work at all it will be in 
software not hardware) in much the same way that other low end Catalyst 
switches that run almost the same software also have similarly severe 
limitations in terminating GRE.

You should consider a router such as a 1941 for this job, it should be 
able to do >100M of throughput if you don't do anything too fancy, and 
list price is about the same as the ME3400 anyway.
