The case in point would be for consistency, there was a mail on this list a
while ago regarding specs for Nokia boxes, one guy bought several and
deployed them around his network, there performance hit was due to a PII 333
celeron in one box and a PIII 600 in another...!!!

It varies from model to model and they upgrade peridocally.. I have seen
an old IP440 with a PPro 200, but I think I heard back in January of this
year they were shipping them with PIII 700's and the IP530 was supposed to
start with a PIII 933. The IP330 still had an AMD proc in it at that point
(a 450 or a 500 I think).
They are quite fast.
