Linksys E3000

I'm thinking about getting a router to replace my Linksys WRT54G. I'm getting a bit tired of its limited capabilities. I like what I've seen of the Linksys E3000. Basically, I want to be able to install Tomato or something similar on it. I have DD-WRT on my WRT54G, but it only has 2MB of flash memory - not enough for many features such as SSH, error logging, or even a full command line. What are your thoughts?

I'm not familiar with the newer routers they've come out with. I know the original v1 and v2 WRT54G / GS routers had much more flash memory but those are getting pretty old and hard to find these days, so probably not worth looking into.

DD-WRT has a pretty good guide on their site that should tell you if the router is missing any hardware to run the fully-featured version of the firmware... otherwise all I can suggest is googling around and seeing if anyone else has already done it and reported on their experiences.
