http://www.intel.com/design/network/products/npfamily/ixdp2351.htm then.

Readily available (I know a couple of folks who have one), and with
its 512K L2 cache it blows any other ARM chip out of the water.
Another example, the IP Fabrics Double Espresso
(see http://www.ipfabrics.com/products/de.php): a dual 900MHz IXP2350
PCI-Express board, and also readily available -- at a mere 1738 GBP.
