At best you'll get 5 9's. Why don't you look at multiple locations? After all, if your business is that critical, a power outage due to a bad circuit in the street outside where there is *supposed* to be redundancy but there isn't will cause pain. I'd also be curious to know what kind of location you're at if you need 100% uptime with T1 links. - Eric
