I have seem bonded t1's for that much

that depends. is that a landline or sat? or microwave for that matter? what is the area availabilty compared to cheaper options, are there cheaper options. for all we know this is the pricelist for the astronauts private connection on the iss.

you gotta remember thats a dedicated SDSL line so your going to get thoese speeds for real. I have 1 at my office and its very fast i can't tell the difference between that and the T1 we have.

so what kind of line is it for?

not the speed. what kind of connectrion? cable/dsl/sat/microwave or gerbil in a pipe?

ok. your original post never mentioned who or what offered that connection.

anything offer up there are crappy why not just get a T1
