I never found any routers pre-installed with OpenWRT. And I was not
about to take the chance of bricking a brand new router flashing new
firmware. (My old router was unsupported for either Open or DD.)
However, I did find ones with dd-wrt that had OpenVPN installed
already.  Ordered a Buffalo WHR-300HP2D today. Seems perfect for my
modest, non-poweruser home needs.  We'll see.
