There are other companies as well, but I think they're pretty competitively priced.
This kind of solution makes the most sense for the OP. Jiwire used to offer a VPN product for around $40 / year but I can't find it anymore. The problem with any commercial VPN solution meant for individual users is that they represent a high-value target for government officials who want to block your connection. So tomorrow, they could say "all traffic to those VPN servers is blocked." and then you're out of luck.

I was hoping your company was based outside of China so that you could VPN back to the corporate servers. I would imagine that Fortune 500 users who can establish a full VPN tunnel can access Facebook when traveling to China.
