	Two of the most novel and low-cost colo sites that have been
	announced to this list are:

	) the un-heated, no existing electrical, mind the hay, cows,
	  and various other flora & fauna - Barn in northern Utah.

	) the trunk of a Buick RoadMaster (supports wireless mobil
	  access and its own power generator!)

as with your bandwidth selections, your colo milage will vary.
