Would you mind elaborating on that? I'm leaning toward the ES20 at the moment for our needs..

missing was L2 MPLS VPN's which is coming in release3 iirc.

12000. ME6524 seems a good fit for this environment, J-2320/6350 could
be the J-land options to explore (although ISR 38x5 are their
counterparts at C-land, not the ME6524).

QoS in PE and catalyst doesn't seem good fit to me. Unless you have
dedicated port to each customer. But in view most all PE usages
include customers in VLAN, in which case, to do any QoS, you need HQoS, which LAN cards can not do. They are cheap for a reason.
While in LSR/P role, LAN cards are perfect fit. It's quite backwards
really, you want 'WAN' cards to face your distribution and LAN
cards are fine in all core, except if you want to do VPLS,
in which case LER/PE needs WAN card to core too.

WAN being SIP (be careful with ES20).
