Probably a good start (whatever technology you end up using) is a
GNU/Linux (preferably Debian) machine connected to both internet links
and your internal network since consumer gateways don't even have more
than one WAN port[2].
I would like to point out that Cradlepoint makes a few routers that have
a port that can be assigned as either a switch port or a 2nd WAN port.
These Cardlepoint routers have load-balancing capabilities.
They accept 3G wireless aircards, having a PCMCIA or Express slot, as
well as USB ports (for USB aircards or tethered smartphones). These
routers can also failover from the ethernet WAN to aircard.
I have a Cradlepoint MBR1200 model. I use it with a Blackberry. I have
not experimented extensively with multiple WAN connections, however.
One big downside is that they are expensive.
