I've been completely happy with our installation of PM25's. They are
getting harder to find/more expensive, though. Lucent really blew it
EOL'ing these.

We have ~100 in production and aside from an occasonal DOA they've
been frawless. BBNPlanet also used them exclusively for console access
when I was there.
