This doesn't only pertain to PIX firewalls unfortunately.
I'm looking into buying a DMZ firewall appliance right now to protect a few webservers with public addresses. Most of the cheaper firewalls I have come across have an external port and an internal port which uses private IP's. I need to keep the IP's public on both sides. I prefer to spend under $1,000 on an appliance. Features such as VPN access isn't important for this application.
A cheap solution I came up with was to use a Linux box running IPtables and a reverse proxy as the gateway device, but my boss would rather use a firewall appliance. Wondering any suggestions on a good appliance that covers what I need under $1k?
