IOW, if you have single, dual, and quad-cam cards in your F10
chassis, they'll all act like
single-CAM cards.

I'd have to second that. This is a very annoying fact, that you will
find mentioned nowhere.
What I also used to dislike is the lack of verbosity of 'show
features' - but that was back a year ago.
Btw, you absolutely want to avoid the S series, the CLI is a pain, and
is not the same as the E or C series, and lacks many features.
Price/10G port is interesting though, but not as much as with Arastra,
if that's switching you're into. (never tested any such kits though...)
My own 2 cents.
