How about the ISPs in Guam, and the University of Guam?

Well, if they would split it out later for connections to an exchange
point.  Kinda ironic that the cable has to "split" out just for the
purpose of "mixing" all the signals together.  

I think this Guam-based NAP would make an interesting project, especially
for people like us who need it.  :)

Or, if the Guam folks decide they need a lot of bandwidth, they'll have it.
