Skycache/Cidera...until it didn't fit anymore in the bandwidth they had.
IIRC, it was only around 28mbps.
Also, IIRC, that "business" was a sort of after thought after their

Anyone want to buy some Skycache chopsticks? I think I still have a few
unopened sets from whichever late 90s ISPCon I went to in San Jose,
CA...Skycache rented out some museum for a sushi party.
