I wouldn't settle for Sonic Walls performance or pay too much for
Checkpoint/Nokia...
Check out NetScreen.  www.netscreen.com

THey have a product that is more than 100Mbps and does full stateful
firewall at only like 9k.  The NetScreen 100

It is true hardware, not a PC architecture like Watchguard or Sonicwall.  I
love it!!
