I don't know what the 10A comment is about. The 5i20 does not to any power - it is strictly a logic device, that can count encoders and generate PWM or (indirectly) analog outputs. Someday soon it will be able to generate fast step pulses as well, but it is NOT a drive, so a current rating like 10A doesn't make sense. Regarding the G-rex - at one time I had plans to write a driver for it, and I have both the Grex board and the Rabbit development kit. But I have other things on my plate right now. For my own project, I've decided to use the 5i20, because I want to do some very non-standard things and the Grex has neither the I/O count or the processing power to do what I want.
