You missed the point. The standard formula I use is "5 days out"  or 
more precisely 2% of gross revenues each year.  For google its still a 
kings ransom, but for a small business it not too hard to implement.  
Case-in-point I have half a dozen cell phones I bought at the beginning 
of the summer (V3RAZR).  Costs me nothing (after rebates) to setup other 
then an afternoon at the cellophane store, but I like "toy shopping" 
anyway.  The residual cost is an additional $60/month.  I now have a 
practical backup to my phone system.  My regular phone stuff (office 
DiDs and 1-800 number) is setup to forward to the cells on a simple 
phone call.  Its not a "perfect" solution but I've planned "something" 
which is better then most.  Most people's way of handling an outage is 
to "go home" and let the techs fix it for tomorrow.
