Have you been looking at providers in the right industry? Such services are
usually offered as addons by people who sell DNS services (especially
dynamic DNS) and other such things designed to make it easier for people to
run their own servers. They do exist, and as was pointed out earlier in this
discussion, cost much less than the 1U colo alternative. We do it, and I
know at least one or two others in our industry do...
