3Com Embedded Firewall.

The 3Com Embedded Firewall is a hardware-based firewall that works with 3Com 10/100 Secure Network Interface Cards to provide security function at network end points, meaning servers and desktops. Further out, 3Com also plans to provide Embedded Firewalls for notebook PCs and other mobile computing devices. (Neowin.net).
 
Had a glimpse of it Neowin as well, looks pretty cool.

Technically though, how would a layer 2 device be able to perform firewall features? I guess it would have to have embedded higher level layers operating on the NIC as well.

Any ideas?
