That's the thing - we're happy with "we've come far from 2005". That's not good enough.
Also btw - if you consider financing cost/depreciation on the IRU, plus O&M costs, the price per MB is breaking down to about $420 not the $94.
Compare this ... SEACOM's IRU is $3.4m for an stm-1 which is 155mb TEAMS for $3.4m you buy 3.4% of the cable, which is 34gb
The cost of the TEAMS cable works out to $2 per MB for the submarine portion :)
While this model is good its IMHO only to Fujaira which means once has to buy onward capacity to Europe, US and Asia its good with a big CAVEAT! Regards, Mich.
