[Sidewinder] Sidewinder Firewall with VMware VI3

Details will be out very early in January, but the short answer is we're not
running on the full blown VI3, but the ESX sub-component.  Price and
availability will literally be out in the Q1 price list supplement in
February.  If we miss that window, it will definitely be in the Q2 price
list.

Evals are available now, just call your reseller (they come on a USB stick).

There was an announcement about a new partnership of Secure Computing
and VMware and a forthcoming product named "Virtual Firewall" or
similar. There is even an eval download on the S.C. website.

Ask your Secure^H^H^H^H^H^HMcAfee representative about availability
and pricing, I do not have any more information, yet.

I'm looking forward to finding some spare time and getting my hands
on this thingy.

Kind regards,
