Well we use the 1900 and have never had any problems...
In fact when I got the piece (and new nothing about switches)
I just plugged it in and *BANG* it was ready to go.
So my vote would be for the Cisco.

P.S. Why are you upgrading to 100 base-t what type of upstream
connection do you have? A fiber?
The only reason I'd like to have 100 baset is for my internal customers.
