"Sort of".
They could have made it a "single-slot NPE-G1", but they decided to make
it "just a leetle bit diff'rent" - interfaces are named differently
(NPE-G1: gi0/1...gi0/3, 7301: gi0/0...gi0/2), NPE-G1 is GBIC-based
while 7301 is SFP-based, and other small things.
As a consequence, you get separate IOS images for the 7301, and
different hardware-adaption layer bugs.
If I had anything to say about this - I'd fire the person who was
responsible for making the 7301 "just a little bit different". I can
see no good in it, and I have felt some of the pain.
