Heh, for only about $240,000 list you too can own a 1 port oc-192 POS card
for a 124xx series GSR that will do not only PPP and HDLC over sonet, but
also frame relay encapsulation...
Seriously though, we aren't ready for 10Gig yet, but when the time comes I'm
considering using 10 Gig E between our core routers instead. I'm not sure
how serious I am about that, but the line cards will be less than half the
cost. Anyone other SPs out there considering that?

Out of curiosity, what hardware/protocol do you use for an OC-192?
