My concern with running this box in a production service 
provider environment, particularly in Metro-E rings, is that 
software stability hasn't been great based on lots of 
feedback from folks on this list.

Suffice it to say, if Juniper are seriously pushing this box 
as a security platform, who's to say what they'll do with it 
2, 3 years out, just like what happened with the good ol' J-
series and Junos-ES? Big disappointment!
