If the price of PRI or channelized T1 is something you can live with,
which depending on the part of the country or county you are in, varies
wildly. I would say go for it. Don't even worry about the 56k, it will
take care of its self in the long run. One of the greatest benefits, in
my opinion is that you will then be able to offer dialup ISDN, 64K, 128K,
along with analog modem dialup, all on the same equipment. I only wish the
PM3 had been here when we started....
