If you're willing to do without modern features, you should be able to pick up a ton of gear that does
all this for dirt cheap. A 7513 with channelized DS-3 cards is still quite spiffy for terminating static routed T1's for instance, and people may even pay you take them at this point. :) The CPE will be more interesting, there are several vendors that still make CPE with T1 interfaces, but that's much more rare. As someone else already mentioned, back in the 720x-VXR /3640 days of T1 terminations, we scaled up to 5 T1s before going to [fractional] DS3, and the old "cef per-packet" load balancing was wonderful provided you were talking to another Cisco endpoint (which for us, at the time, was Qwest, and yes it was). We were so sold on it that we even tried that on campus, but soon learned that Catalysts had no idea what "cef per-packet" meant :( So enter EIGRP / utilization load sharing...
