While going through the vendor list for IWF 2006, I found the following. May be of interest for people wanting to switch to the Milwaukee router.

"JessEm Tool teams up with Milwaukee Electric Tool to take the table mounted router to the next level. This industry first router configuration consists of a powerful Milwaukee 3.5 Max HP EVS motor with power and variable speed controls moved down the cord to a remote control box. Designed to be used in a router table with a JessEm Mast-R-Lift or Mast-R-Lift Excel, the motor is direct wired to the remote control box and configured with premium tachometer based electronic feedback circuitry to maintain optimal speed and power under load. The remote control box can be mounted in a convenient position for easy access to variable speed and on/off controls. This is the ultimate power source for router table applications in a small shop production environment."

I couldn't find any information on JessEm's website for either the modified router or availability. I plan on visiting their Booth on Saturday.
I changed to the Milwaukee router earlier this year and have no regrets.
