Well, from what I get the so-called "virtualisation appliances" are just servers with more memory slots and booting one of the existing virtualisation from some flash ram. The real plus sides of those solutions is the support offered by the hardware companies as they will qualify those systems specifically with the virtualisation solution. But you can easily design a small memory footprint linux system with KVM that will boot from compact flash...
