Re: Seeking NJ-NYC connectivity

[Charles Sprickman <spork () inch com>]

Hi,

Just wanted to thank everyone for their input.  There are certainly more
people providing all sorts of "non-traditional" connectivity to choose
from.  It seems some of the most cost-effective options land across the
river at 111 Pavonia or 24 Exchange Place.  My last question would be,
what are some cheap partial rack co-lo facilities at these locations?

Thanks,

Charles
