Saad,

I'm a Product Manager for Cisco IDS. Without interjecting too much
marketing info. into this discussion, I would like to clarify that the
Cisco IDS 4235 & 4250 have been shipping for a while now. They are rated at
200 Mbps & 500 Mbps, respectively. Pls. refer to the following link for
further information or feel free to contact me directly if you are
experiencing any issues locating these products in the ordering tool.
