I've been working with a demo from one vendor so far.  In my initial
meeting with them they had said they had network connect working with
Linux and MAC along with Windows.  I received the demo unit, and it
wasn't working.

Turns out had to load some beta code on the box to get it working.  Once
I was able to get that loaded, the client was actually getting
installed, however, there were problems.  In MAC OSX land it wasn't
manipulating the routing tables correctly so nothing was getting passed
to the newly created tunnel.

In Linux land, the tunnel was passing all traffic except DNS lookups.

Working with the engineers, they've gotten the MAC client resolved and
I'm running a newer version that seems to be working nice and stable.
The linux client is supposedly fixed also, just waiting for an email on
that also.

I've tried both "dynamically deployed" when you logon and "fat clients"
and they both seem to work great so far!  I have yet to test and PDA
clients.

I'm expecting a second vendor demo box to show up in the next week or
two that also touts MAC and LINUX client support.

Barring any major problems and if I can get the funding we'll probably
be going this route.  So far I've been pretty pleased with the way it's
going to work out I think!
