here is my 2c on this issue:
 
Nokia:  lousy platform.  Support really sucks.  Definitely finger-pointing 
between Nokia and
Checkpoint when customers run into problem.  It is NEVER a good idea to run 
checkpoint
application software on top of an Operating System, IPSO in this case, because 
you are
going to run into compability issue.  I don't care if Nokia specifies Nokia as 
an appliance,
it is still running IPSO with Checkpoint as application.  I work for a Service 
Provider and I 
see this finger-pointing everyday between Nokia and Checkpoint.
 
Crossbeam:  Same issue as Nokia.
 
Corrent:  This is the best platform as far as I am concern because it runs 
Checkpoint
SecurePlatform.  The thing that I like about this is that if you do have 
issues, you deal
directly with Checkpoint and there will be no finger-pointing from Checkpoint 
to anyone
else because Checkpoint is responsible for the underlying OS, Redhat Linux in 
this case,
as well.  
 
As you may have already noticed, Checkpoint is famous for blaming the problem 
on other
vendors.  With SPLAT, checkpoint will have no choice but to help you fix the 
problem.  
That's another reason to stay from Nokia, Solaris, Crossbeam or Windows.
