They produced and sold considerable numbers of exactly such device. Quite a number of core FreeBSD developers worked for them, among them Terry, Julian, Archie, and a couple of others... Unfortunately, after the aquisition the product vanished from the market and (as far as I know) is available only as a part of an overpriced service offering from IBM. So, maybe this is the right time for the next InterJet...
