Are we discussing:
1) locations primarily for peering between large carriers, or
2) carrier hotels including virtually all providers, where cheap
faste/gige peering runs are easily justified?
If #1, I agree with David. In the case of the latter, I think I
see what Paul is saying. IMESHO, local/longhaul price imbalance
and the growth of distributed hosting {would|will} help fuel the
smaller exchanges.
