Why?  What is/are the technical or marketing reason(s) that make you 
want to deploy routers over bridges knowing that they are more 
expensive?  For what kinds of customers?  What kinds of access 
networks?  How much do you want to spend on CPE gear?  How much remote 
manageability?  How much customer manageability?  What about mass 
firmware upgrades, diagnostics, and other OSS functions?  (AFAIK the 
only standards based option for management behind a router is TR-069).
