I've soldered a few of 'em in my days, yeah... and as hard as I try, it's 
usually not as neat as I would like! Fear of melting the rotten things is what 
tends to keep me from really doing it right. (Been there, done that!) So, I 
would have to say that RJ45's are a significantly better choice! :)

Suffice it to say, I am very much impressed with what I am seeing of the Axia 
system. It's probably going to be a while before I ever get to "play" with 
one, tho... but I can dream!

Nice work.
