You could also look at the HP Networking range.

If you want lots of 10G on a "switch" like platform (smaller number of
routing table entries) you look at the 5920 or 5800 platforms
If you want a lesser number of 10G on a "router" like platform (4M routing
table entries) but costlier interfaces then consider 6600 or 6800 platform.

Either way, they have very similar Comware operating system feature sets as
far as routing protocols go.
