When my MX80's and ASR9001's run out of steam (we use these for peering and transit), I'll look at the MX104, ASR1006 and ASR9904 as potential replacements. I think the MX104 is good enough for peering/transit. I also think it's good enough for low-speed edge routing, e.g., non-Ethernet. I'd likely never deploy an MX104 in places where the MX480/960 or the larger ASR9900 routers are better-suited, i.e., major Ethernet aggregation.
