so i have setup pfsence in a bridge mode as well, and it works quite well, helped setup some websites to use it as their firewall in a bridge configuration.
As far as hardware goes i have been using http://store.netgate.com/Netgate-m1n1wall-2D3-2D13-red-P218C83.aspx which has an ALIX board which does support hardware crypto, openvpn works well with it, and the box has 3 NIC's 10/100 and is low power.
