My NAS vendor has deployed many systems with Chelsio 10GbE cards
in the field, say they are good.

I have a friend who does 10GbE iSCSI testing for Broadcom, he
recently started testing iSCSI offload for Broadcom/Linux, while
the iSCSI(offload) stuff isn't quite so solid yet the regular
10GbE stuff is. I think for the most part Broadcom stuff is
OEM these days.

Intel recently launched a low power 10GbaseT adapter(2nd or
3rd generation), I haven't heard much about it but my general
experience with Intel GbE NICs has been positive
