Todd,
Actually, we can run MPLS in 2500 series router if we have the MPLS IOS for
the 2500. The IOS name for the MPLS in 2500 is c2500-p-l.mpls.bin, but this
IOS is just for the lab, not for the real network.

Thanks to all for the response to my post.
I'm using 2500s in my test bed, and I've been told that MPLS will not
run on anything less than a 2600. That just saved me a lot of
frustration! We've got some 2600s in our lab, so I'll switch over to those.
Again, many thanks to those who took the time to help me out.
