Phil,

With regards to your question on the cost of GigE interface, it is "1". Here is
an output from one of our routers:

GigabitEthernet5/2 is down, line protocol is down
  Internet Address 10.99.99.1/16, Area 0
  Process ID 666, Router ID 111.3.0.1, Network Type BROADCAST, Cost: 1 <<---
  Transmit Delay is 1 sec, State DOWN, Priority 1
  No designated router on this network
  No backup designated router on this network
  Timer intervals configured, Hello 10, Dead 40, Wait 40, Retransmit 5

  believe that if it ain't broke, it doesn't have enough features yet.
