Cisco 1861 Router

I got excited when I saw this released...a SMB focused ISR that is obviously based on the UC500. That is I was excited until I saw the list of UNSUPPORTED WICs and VICs:

No VICs supported at all to be exact. Especially the VIC2-1MFT (PRI/voice T1 interface). This means that if you have an IVAD product (integrated voice and data) from your carrier, you more than likely have a PRI handoff with 8-12 channels and you will not be able to use the 1861. Bummer.
