Motorola has to OK your purchase before you can even get a quote. It's a
LONG *LONG* process, and a ROYAL pain in the ass. I've spoken to the
right people in the past, and as of about a month and a half ago, you're
looking at around $5500 for a dual 604e/400 MTX+, $4300 for a dual
604e/300 MTX+, and $1300 for a 603/133 MTX. 

Expensive. And a PiTA to get. But worth it. I've got 604e/400 dual,
604e/300 dual, and a 603/133 now.
