[amibroker] Intraday Backtesting - Where to get data?

For all you intraday traders out there:
- How do you obtain your data for backtesting?

I'm currently an EOD equity trader.  Would like to explore intraday 
trading.  Where can I get some backfill data on the cheap, to look 
into the feasibility of going intraday.

Do intraday traders just accumulate data each day from real-time 
feeds and keep it?

Looking at some of AB's data parter sites - it was pretty difficult 
to discern what backfill was offered.

And perhaps a more philosophical question - if an EOD system works, 
with minor tweaks, would the system typically work within an intraday 
timeframe?

Thanks,
- chris
