Doesn't particularily satisfy my curiousity :-) - the 6807XL so far is
"just a new chassis for -2T line cards", as there's no ultra-high-speed
supervisor or line card yet.  Marketing this as "investment protection" 
for brand new 2T stuff is... interesting, though.

Makes me wonder, though, which platform will survive in the end - 6500 
(with 6800 included), 7600, Nexus 7k, or ASR9k...  with 3-4 different OSes
as well.
