I think you should consider 1700 model.
The price for new box is cheaper than 1600, AFAIK
You can buy 2 WIC-2T or WIC-2A/S and make it as a FR switch,
or get WIC-1B to play around with ISDN
1750-2V support voice very well

and guess what? with default flash & nvram, you can plug the hottest IOS
for home-lab:

Subject: 1600 series routers

I wanted to get a general feel from this community on using 1600 series
routers in prep for lab since they are lower cost in place of 2500s. Any
shortcomings? They support ISDN, serial and ethernet I/Fs.

I realize they can't support ATM or voice and can't be used as a
frame-relay
cloud or access server.

Does anyone know if virtual token-ring I/Fs can be created on these?

Just looking to lower my cost for a home lab.

Thanks in advance.
