What I've found on CCO is that there are actually three flavors of this box.
One is for Broadband functions, the second is a CPE edge device, and the
third is a gateway box that only supports the LAN PAMs. The PXF will also
provide accelerated performance for NAT, ACLs , LLQ, CAR, and NetFlow
accounting. It can also provide VPN and firewall (IOS) functionality.
Pretty interesting....

I attended a seminar before at Cisco HK. The information I was given
is that this new router is positioned as a broadband router. In terms of
performance, it is equipped with PXF which will do certain kind of QoS
speed up (if you do) and its based board is actually a 7200. GE interfaces
are built-in, which provides connectivity to GE backbone. (but not line
rate)
I have some presentation slides which may give a better overview of
the product. I can email you if you need.
