I'm looking for a PIX for an office of about 50 users, each with 50 VoIP phones using SIP (if that matters). It would need to support up to 100 consecutive VPNs, some Point-to-point, some via the Cisco VPN client. It needs 3 10/100 (or 1000) ethernet ports. It doesn't have to be a PIX, could be an ASA. Cost IS a point of contention. Upgrading from a 505E.

Brian, these are next negeration of ASA from legacy PIXes. If upgrading 505E you probably would look into ASA5505, the ASA5505 have two routed ports inside/outside and one DMZ when using security plus license , however, 5510 would probably be a goog investment more scalable, but take a look at this link which will give you beter picture of capabilities per your requirements, always think of future growth , and device throughput specifications.

How does the licensing for the ASAs work now? There's a limit on concurrent VPN connections - is that ANY type of VPN connection or just peer-to-peer, SSL, or other client?
Are there other *software-based* limitations that weren't in effect in the older PIX 6.3 days?

It is different , if we take ASA5505 as an example in Models comparison
ASA5505 With a base lisence : ASA5505-BUN-K9 ( 10 user lisence ) only 10 users
inside can accesss outbound connections.
1- Maximun 10 VPN connetions , whether L2L and/or remote access VPN user sessions,
NO DMZ support no trunking support unless you purchase security plus license to have
up to 25 VPN connections and enable DMZ support and trunking.
