I purchased a single GigE transport link from them between a off-net 
building that they lit for us and a lit site.  Install went without 
issue, including pulling in new fiber.  Never underestimate the 
advantages of having pole and conduit rights.  My only complaint would 
be interval - it took nearly 120 days from order to install and much of 
that was seemingly spent idle.

The service itself has been rock solid.  Unfortunately they don't span 
across metros within the same logical network (yet) - this would 
definitely be a bonus.
