AFAIK DFE-570's are already finished from production. Thanks to all of you guys. I was not able to find any user testimonials for the LevelOne FNC-0600TXM. This D-Link DFE-580TX is three times more expensive and although widely sold in Europe not even listed on D-Link's site?! I didn't know I'm poking into such an exotic area. I'll probalbly go the common route and then hide all the network gizmos with the cable nest into a carton box or something :) -- Regards, Karel Miklav
