I was surprised by the similarities between the 7507 and 7513. Why EOL the one device that has a pleasing form factor ? There are MANY providers who would be quite happy with ~ 600 mbps? That's a lot of billings...
From past experience there is no way you can get a 7507 to switch 600Mbps..
As for EOL, not sure.. the only deployments I've seen lately of 75xx have been as aggregators for WAN circuits and theres usually a GSR doing the work behind it, perhaps people are still buying 7513s for their card capacity? Steve

Hi Alexander
I'm not sure what you're trying to say You asked why the Cisco website tool won't give you a 7505 as a config option I replied that it's EOL - with a quote from Cisco website
All I see in the HTML table you sent is that the 7507(or 7513) is better than a 7505 - is there a non-obvious point I missed ?
