    According to Juniper, it's targeted as an IP/MPLS router for the Metro

    It is meant to compete with Cisco's ASR920 and NCS540 boxes, as Juniper
    have no plans to develop a lite version of the MX204.
    
Which is something many of us smaller providers have been begging them for YEARS to make. Hopefully it doesn't have restrictions on port configurations like the MX204 or weird filtering limitations like the original ACX boxes. The ASR920 is popular for a reason - they are rock-solid, offered decent port configurations, sensible and reasonably priced licensing, small form-factor and features decent enough for an access MPLS device.

Trying to get more info from my SE, but likely will not be able to share it due to NDA, as it's not yet a released product.
