Your timing is perfect with this reply. I was just on the phone with Sonic.net and the rep told me that the T1 was better due to it being all my traffic and much more reliable.

They told me that most companies buying internet for hosting their infrastructure internally are not happy with 40Mbps.

With Comcast we currently have a 20 x 5 and they are offering us a 50 x 10 circuit for $123/month.
