We're seeing 1.5mbps / 220kbps pretty consistently. We've been able to run VPNs and terminal services over it reliably. Latency is consistent around 500ms-700ms. Much better then DirecWay.
How much are we making off of it ? Well - Not much at all from the "service" but we're selling an SLA to the oilfield companies that we service with these systems. Our mark-up is approx 5x-7x what the monthly service costs us but we'll have someone on-site within 6hours if something goes south. Not sure if you could use the same selling point we can, but oilfield companies love to be catered to.
