You didn't tell us how many of each you've got. The 2650XM is the best among them and you definitely need 2 layer 3 switches. For route, you'll need like 5 routers.

Thanks for the response, currently I have,
Routers:
1-1720
1-1841
1-2610xm

Switches:
1-2950
2-3550 one of them is a POE (I believe)

BroadcastStorm

Those 2610XM I believe only have 1 fastethernet port, it would be ideal to go for the 1 instead of 0 since it comes with 2 fastethernet ports.

Netwurk

A 2610 should be expandable unless you've already used the free slot

The one from this link

Cisco One-Port Ethernet Network Module, NM-1E

should work with all 2600's that have a free slot. A fast ethernet card is also available. You might be able to do better on Ebay than with CAK, but they're a safe bet IMO
