I would go for the ME3600X, as that gets you proper IPv4, 
IPv6 and MPLS in the Access, along with features.

The ME2600X is great, but lacks the Layer 3 and MPLS 
capabilities (along with a few QoS restrictions, but still 
better than any other switches in Cisco's arsenal).

With the ME3600X, all you need to worry about is resiliency 
to your customers. Typically, I'd leave it up to them, 
rather than you doing fancy things like MC-LAG, VRRP, e.t.c.

Cheers,

Mark.
