....and combine that with Stuart Larson's idea of a managed/jeeped 
router. The OpenWRT project lists a considerable variety of compatible 
devices like the cheapo ASUS, the Buffalo Airstation and much of the 
Linksys WRT-series.

Basically a little tiny debian appliance you can manage with or without 
a web interface. Pop in Squid and have it mail your usage logs to you.
