CINX is a hit with ISPs in the Western Cape

It's an INTERNET exchange. They don't all have to be ISP's to exchange Internet Traffic. :rolleyes:

Aside from that, there are around 150 Internet Service Providers of varying kinds registered on the ISPA website (http://www.ispa.org.za/membership/list-of-members)

You may not be able to name some of them simply because they don't cater to you, but in some shape or form, all of them are providing Internet Services.

Progress is made with DINX - last I heard they were looking for a partner to host DINX whch is obviously a key step in establishing the exchange. Not certain when that process will be finished. Maybe an ISPA member can give some clarity here.
 
2 Gbps for Joburg doesn't sound like that much. Especially when you consider the size of the submarine cables.
 
12TB per day - thats a huge amount of local content that is being freely exchanged! The growth of the INX's is a sign that we have very healthy local industry.

My best guess at this stage is late 1Q2011 or early 2Q2011 -- depends on the hosting proposals that get submitted to ISPA.

I don't think Google falls into either of those categories - yet they seem to exchange rather large amounts of traffic ;)
