South Africa.
As above, I emailed em and discovered while they do not have a CDN location in South Africa, they do have peering with ISP's in South Africa (didnt tell me who)

Anyone using them, yay or nay?

Hosting our website in USA and would like to use a CDN to give a bit of a speed in load time for south african visitors.
 
We were talks with them at some stage to try and get a cluster hosted for them in SA, however it didn't really go anywhere after they stopped conversations with us.

Currently I only know of 3 CDNs in SA.

Akamai: SAIX and their clients, IS and their clients have access to those.
LimeLight: BCX is asking ISPs money to access this, so only IS (Who sponsers them bandwidth I hear) and their clients have access to it.
CDNetworks: Looks like most of SA has access to it.
