Take a look at the Citrix WanScaler/Branch Repeater stuff. We did an in-house eval between Riverbed, SilverPeak, a Cisco offering, and the Citrix products. We allowed the engineers from each vendor tweak their stuff. We found the best bang for the buck with the Citrix gear.
Of course, your mileage may vary depending on what's important to you, like CIFS, de-dup,etc. Obviously if you're using Citrix clients, their product has an advantage in accelerating the ICA traffic.

We have an office in Bangalore, currently using Expand Networks devices. They are due for an upgrade and before I pull the trigger on new Expand boxes, I'd like to see what other folks are using. Thanks!
