I don't have any usage experience, but would be very interested from
anyone who does as well. We have spoken with them about long-haul
circuits (with small to no commit) and their prices are indeed
incredible. The prices we heard were for Equinix to Equinix circuits
(specifically CHI1 & CHI3 to DAL1 & NJ2) they also quoted us great
deals on resold IBX-link to get to IBX's that they don't have a
physical presence in (they aren't in CHI3 for example). I do wonder
how they can undercut everyone's price by such a margin. Were you
seeing great quotes into non Equinix facilities?
