A few questions after seeing the website.
So APE is all off Auckland (aka = IXC Metro)
As I read the site, a 1gbps port is $200, plus $110 for "local", we use around 1gbps on APE so another 0.80 cents per mbps, would bring the service cost to $1100 per month, therefore it appears much more expensive than APE, unless im missing something?
This type of service needs critical mass to become attractive, APE has so many peering partners already, and the product is respected overall, Intellipath should offer Free ports, then pay as you go mbps to get as many peers on board as possible?
I see international peering is $25 per Mbps, is that international Layer 2 transit to another port you buy in say LA?
:-) watching with interest though.

I see www.Intellipath.co.nz just launched.

Anyone else looking at coming on-board?

We've ordered a port at MDR and will VxC to a couple of other networks we do a lot of traffic to.

The Megaport IX service in Auckland looks like a credible alternative to Citylink's APE - depends on who comes on-board.

I'd be happy if Callplus & Mediaworks on-boarded.
