This in itself sounds like a colossal waste of developer man-hours.  Which really just serves to underline how clueless CPE vendors are - about their core business, no less.

They obviously have a lot more resources than we do.  What could *we* do with that level of funding and organisation?  Take six months, and put out a router that *doesn't* suck for a change!
