Think! Man!
There are differences in what kind of span capabilities you have with a pfc2 vs. pfc3.
Hmn.. have to put this on my list of things to look into later as I've not had the need to do any spanning on any production units with the pfc3.
I bought the unit I have (6509 w/dual SUP2/MSFC2/PFC2, SFM, WS-X6608-T1, several PoE 10/100 modules, a MGCP FXS module, and... can't recall what else is collecting dust in a box now) just to model CatOS/IOS version interop issues, as well as for a particular certification track. Its usefulness thereafter has been.. shall we say.. minimally warranted.
I really couldn't justify the sup720 unless I had a particularly fickle client that was on retainer.
Frankly, if I could sell the thing, I probably would. It usually sits not much more active than a boat anchor.
