This is another reason to use Guam for an interconnect. Guam is part of the USA and so telecommunications is already deregulated. (A side benefit for US citizens living on Guam is that Guam is the only place in the universe where one's income is not subject to US Federal Income Tax, go figure :-).
Hello Fellow Electronic Colleagues: <looking around a room> Can anyone say Hawaii? :)
This is what we need from NANOG. More interconnects around the US. And maybe there should be a WNOG (world) :) To help get things running around the world. I recieved an email from a company in Switzerland and they say they are paying about 1,000,000 ($US) for their 'two' T1s to the internet per year. If there are more open exchange points, less hops to get somewhere, the net might become nicer. (no I don't mean using ATM to make it look like less hops.) Christian
