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.

I think it is.
And as an ISP employee, I can tell you it's not that easy :-)
