There have been suggestions of good SNMP monitorable power strips here
before, however I'm looking for a power strip with individually
monitorable outlet current (via SNMP).

I've searched google for quite a while and can't seem to separate out such
a beast from all the remote power management strips that just monitor
aggregate usage.

I have an application where I need to record the variation in power
consumption for individual devices over time.  I need to monitor about 30
devices in 4 cabinets (8 devices per cabinet or so) in and have a budget
of $4000.  I'd like to be able to see current in milliamps or 10 milliamp
increments.  I'm looking for an off the shelf device.

If anybody can help me I'd certainly appreciate it.
