Yup. However, have you priced an STM1 from Sydney to Tokyo vs STM1 from Sydney to US and Tokyo to US? The two STM1s are about 75% of the cost of the direct STM1.
No, but I've priced from US to Tokyo. That's about 10 times the cost of New York to London, or 5 times the price of New York to San Jose. (Admittedly, my US <> Tokyo pricings are from "big carriers" who don't tend to be the most competitive. A quick browse of band-x shows a US<> Tokyo circuit 40% cheaper) Simon -- Simon Lockhart | Tel: +44 (0)1737 839676 Internet Engineering Manager | Fax: +44 (0)1737 839516 BBC Internet Services | Email: Simon.Lockhart@bbc.co.uk Kingswood Warren,Tadworth,Surrey,UK | URL: http://support.bbc.co.uk/
