The ME3800X will have more scale, I imagine. Anyone with one to confirm?

Since the ME3800X is built to be a more scalable version of the ME3600X,
it's unlikely the number of instances on the ME3600X will be increased
(even if the hardware may be able to do it).

The only change I recall that came down from the ME3800X to the ME3600X
was full VPLS support. Other than that, the ME3800X keeps all the
scaling goodies.
