i'm more or less in my discovery phase of a project to modernize circuits i have in the following asia/pac countries/cities: beijing, shanghai, hong kong, taipei, and tokyo right now they have a mix of frac t1/e1 circuits and are in desperate need of an upgrade. initially i was looking again to get a frac service from a common carrier to all the cities, but pricing and someone pointing out that business DSL (tokyo in particular) is better for the dollar. that being said, does anyone have any particular experience with service in any/all of these cities and their latency back to the states? i'd prefer a sdsl equivalent service and will have vpn tunnels going back to one hub location (hong kong). i'm already researching the 'usual suspects' of resources, but i was looking for feedback not from a sales person. thanks, -r
