yeah don't talk to me about some of the bozo companies I've had to talk to about "congestion at the peering points" and how they can wave their magic wand and make all those problems go away.
A current pitch from a certain newish IXP entrant in London is that they can save me money off my Transit bill. When vendors get their facts so blatantly wrong about your company, I seriously consider whether they're worth doing business with - true it's just the sales droid, but IXen don't need that many sales droids, I thought...
Sounds like something we looked at a while ago - layer 2 interconnectivity over IP or MPLS for ISP's - we couldn't make the numbers add up though.
It's something I have considered for backup connectivity, but it never went anywhere. I'm waiting for Nigel to pitch to me, in case his version makes sense. :) Chris.
