I'm on a burstable T1 from UUnet here. They bill on 95th percentile as
usual, however you have to be over your billing teir for two months in a
row before you are billed at the higher teir. This provides some safety in
that there's never a surprise about a billing increase. However, if you
are not careful you will end up paying them far more than they should get.
Once you get over the 384Kbit teir, it costs you more than a flat rate T1.
