	how much is Optimum Online charging you for each of the five?

	practically, you can not buy IP addresses. you can buy companies 
	who have the right to use IP addresses (hard), or you can go to
	ARIN and justify your own "right to use" (not as hard, but then
	you have to deal w/ your ISP accepting routes for them),  -OR-
	switch ISPs.

	if you are willing to wait for a while (12-18 months) - rumors are
	that folks might be able to swap/trade their IP space IRU's fairly
	easily...  but thats just a rumor at the moment.  Check the ARIN
	meeting minutes for the SAT mtg last week.
