As I remember, T1 point-point is about $1000+ month in DC area ?
Maybe some pointers...

We're trying to compare ded T1 vs FR up to T1 CIR/port...

You cannot compare FR and a full point to point T-1. Its like comparing
a ferrari with a ferrari that has a ford escort engine.

FR is a shared packet switched network. No path dedication and performance
based on the fr-cloud load. a ptp t-1 will never have a load that you are not
responsbble for.

And no, a t-1 does not cost 1000. your telco costs are mileage based
and can be as low as $200. If you are thinking about internet access,
yes, that is $1000; but remember the 1000 dollar cost does not include
your local loop telco tariffs.
