low-latency bandwidth for cheap?

This may be the wrong forum to ask this, and if so I apologize, please just point me in the right direction! I'm getting somewhat frustrated with the instability and high latency of residential cable and DSL offerings, but I love the T1 or greater bandwidth they offer. I'd like reasonable bandwidth with low latency without spending hundreds of dollars per month! Anybody know a good source for near-T1 low-latency bandwidth at around $100/month? I'm in the northern VA area btw. -- Jeff Wheeler Postmaster, Network Admin US Institute of Peace
