No Thanks

Overpriced and probably easily exploitable too. All-in-ones aren't usually worth the money because bundling processes usually results in the wholesale depreciation of the entire thing. There is no possible way that D-Link could ever hope to keep up with, much less outpace, hackers, crackers, spyware, spybots & spam.

It all depends.

I have used a fortinet firewall that provided the same features and was always on top of virus defs, spyware, and so on. Course, that system was $2000 up front and there was a yearly fee for def updates.

I am going to hold off on reviews until toms hardware or another site does an official review on it.

I think iPhantom gives you a VPN back to their Switch. DLink seems to do it in the router. I've heard a few people suggestion iPhantom as a tool to deal with a ISPs who interfere with certain services (e.g. peer-to-peer or VOIP).

This does much more than the iBoss or iPhantom.
