Yes Ken, the Soundingboard article is interesting. At times it seems like a jumble of marketing hype from a number of different manufacturers touting various solutions.

However, the NN snippet looks encouraging for NNLongs:

"According to a March 23 report, "IVPN Service
Backbones: The Operations Cost Angle," issued by
consulting firm The Yankee Group
(www.yankeegroup.com), the ATM-based approach
of Newbridge Networks Corp.
(www.newbridge.com), Siemens and 3Com Corp.
(www.3com.com) is proving the lowest cost method
to operate IP VPNs, compared with terabit routers
and the Internet Engineering Task Force's (IETF's)
(www.ietf.org) emerging multiprotocol label
switching (MPLS)."
