Thanks to EVERYONE so far for the responses.... it's quite helpful. If we leave the whole VPSL component out and want to do "MPLS" - is there any documents on Cisco.com that outline what the Sup2 platform is capable of when it comes to MPLS in general? Somewhere I would think that Sup2 can do *some* MPLS stuff or am I just simply wrong? ;)

You can do a field upgrade, mounting a PFC3B(/XL) later though. There are some features that early Supervisors won't do though, like ERSPAN for HW-version before 3.2 or something.
