Just to remind you of the Linksys situation.

The initial linksys routers used linux as the underlying OS.  They
eventually realized that the GPL required them to provide the source. 
The result was the availability of third party firmware.

Recently, Linksys replaced linux with a proprietary embedded OS.  They
managed to reduce the memory requirements and save some money in the
bargain.  But in response to customer complaints, they decided to
continue the L series, which has extra memory, the Linux based
firmware, and costs a bit more.
