So, like Sean Kelly was saying to me just the other day:

Right.  A year ago, I got the full router SW, no NT-1.
About $1300, IIRC.

I started with Ascend directly.  Called their 800 number and tried
to order one directly from them.  They in turn supplied me the name
of the local distributor, which happened to be, for me in Dallas:

    Anixter
    Ascend Distributor
    214-446-7337
    Matt Youngblood x247

Talk to anyone other than Matt unless he's learned something
this past year...

I don't know if there is a nearer one to you, but Ascend should know.
The first P50 I had was DOA.  I called Ascend, got an RMA, and a day
later had a working one in hand after Fed Ex stopped by on Saturday.
It was a pleasure doing business with them.
