If you have a Smartnet contract you needn't worry about replacing the 515E
until 2013.
Like you, however, I'm also thinking about what to replace the E with.

+1. With any hardware, especially a firewall, I FIND a reason to create
a trouble ticket to test drive the tech support BEFORE it makes it into
production. Even if it's a mundane ticket, it gives you a chance to
'Kick the tires'. You can practice the procedures to contact support,
document them,

"3) I seem to remember some pretty fervent anti-SonicWall comments here
lately, mostly due to offshoring of tech support. Am I remembering that
correctly?
Sidewinder, Vyatta and pfsense come to mind.

In my experience, Sonicwall's are absolutely terrible when going against any
fortinet or Juniper FW's. I'd rather do a netgate box with either monowall
or pfsense than choose a Sonicwall, IMO.

I also had the same experience back around that time but support and their
