Do you mean t.38 when you say SIP? Unfortunately the pricing is under NDA, however I agree that the monthly commit is steep. Depending on what you're doing you may be able to include multiple services eg cabinet, internet feed, voice etc towards the monthly commit.
I emailed both organisations from their respective sales links on their websites.

I too would love to get into Level 3 or XO but their monthly commitment is still a barrier ... We only push around 50-60k minutes inbound and outbound. Also I've heard that Level3 won't do SIP yet since they're still testing it or some other crap. If anyone can hook me up with a contact that can do something even with our volume, I would be forever grateful. Another option would be if someone that's already hooked up to Level 3 would take us "under their wing" and resell traffic and DIDs to us.
