You sure about the price of the ssl termination appliance? I am supposed
to be getting some 7180s
(http://channel.intel.com/business/products/ecom/7110accel.htm) in this
week to mess around with. The 7180's do 600 tps SSL and have the SSL
termination, but they are $20K.. and the only boxes that I know of from
intel that are 200tps are the low end 7110 SSL accelerators which are
only about 7K which I happen to have a few I have been tinkering with
lately, pretty impressive little boxes, lots more functionality than I
thought. I am looking forward to getting my hands on some 7180s in a few
days ;)

Ya, I had a meeting with intel a few weeks ago about some of their
newest SSL accelerators and they JUST released them about 3 weeks ago, I
think it is the 7185, previously the 7180 was around $40K and when they
released the 7185 the price of the 7180 dropped to 20K. Anyway, this new
7180 can do 1200 tps and 6000 established connetions,
