Regarding Hugo's comment about a comparison between UTM-1 and IP390
performance, remember Check Point made the UTM-1 release just to help
customers in the small-to-medium range to get a Check Point solution for
less money (VPN-1 UTM license + Hardware = more money than a UTM-1
appliance).

Basically UTM-1 is not supposed to be a high performance appliance, it's
just for that small-to medium market, and I see very difficult for they to
start selling high performance appliances for the enterprise when they have
made the "hardware platform flexibility" one of their marketing points
against their competition. Which then leads me to think it doesn't make much
sense for CP to kick Nokia out of the options.

Making it short, my personal opinion is UTM-1 is no match for a Nokia IP390
appliance simply because it is not supposed to be that way, being targeted
to a specific range of the market that does not need much in performance.

My two cents...

yes, but nokia has been a checkpoint hardware producer for years, it's
not kosher of them to just kick nokia out.

1) They're not kicking Nokia out. Those rumors have been around for
years on end, and they are as baseless now as they were then.
2) "kosher". Oh ha-ha. Yeah, CheckPoint is an Israeli company. We know.
