1) Telehouse will not allow another peering point at 25 Broadway. Its like saying "I will put my own Giga at MAE-EAST! 2) $400 a month for a port where a decent amount of traffic is traded and where the switch is well maintained is not rediculous...Telehouse is not a 501(c)3...they are in this to make money... 3) Unless you can get some big names to peer openly, no one would be willing to pay... So how will you fund a switch and other costs? I think Telehouse is making a buck, but isn't that what we are all here for?
