I have had similar experiences to Richard's with the "Free SRX210H" I even managed to get a DSL PIM in there as well. Had it up and working for about 2 months when the pim quit forwarding traffic randomly. Rebooting the SRX seems to fix it well enough though... I will say that the free hardware has cost a lot of my time and some annoyed phone calls from my wife when netflix doesn't work.
