Yeah, considering the fact that it is brand new and there isn't any other
company with a comparable product, I don't think it's over priced.  The
price should come down as other networking companies move to make their
own products to compete with it.  I wouldn't be surprised if in the near
future, all network cards had this functionality since the executives are
starting to see that a single firewall on the outside of your network
doesn't really help much if that is the only security method one uses :)

Cheers,

Trevor
