Hi,
Thanks to the post forwarded onto the list by Andy Linton I have been inspired to get in touch with the SixXS guys and arange a local SixXS pop within New Zealand.
"To celebrate this new PoP, the SixXS logo will be upside down" I was wondering why it was upside down ;-) Cheers guys: Begin forwarded message:

Hi again,
Thanks to the people from Advanced Computer Solutions in Wellington, New Zealand, we are very proud to present a new PoP in the SixXS family: nzwlg01.sixxs.net. which is located in Wellington, New Zealand.
This PoP is available for all users from New Zealand!
Further details about the PoP can be found on the ACSData PoP Page (http://www.sixxs.net/pops/acsdata/)
...
To celebrate this new PoP, the SixXS logo will be upside down for some time as we are now also available Down Under, it is the first PoP below the equator and it is also really on the other side of the planet from where we started out from. ...
We will also, for at least the coming month, be giving new users from New Zealand bonus credits so that they can directly request a tunnel + subnet from this PoP. Thus spread the word!
Greets, Jeroen
