Most of the ones I know personally are doing CGN and have no real need for IP addresses. I know of Wireless ISPs with 2000 customers and only about 50 IPv4 addresses in use for nat and the occasional Public IP customer. Justin Wilson j2sw@mtin.net www.mtin.net www.midwest-ix.com

What's the business model, if you have less than 120 customers? Selling value-add services on top of moving the packets? Or just be in a country where cost-of-everything is so cheap that you can make a profit on 120 customers at $20/mo?
And hundreds? Is that "in the US", or "worldwide"?
