[asterisk-biz] European hosting

[Terje Elde]

Hi,

Borderline off-topic, but it's intended primarily for VoIP usage, so I'm 
hoping to get away with it.  :)

I'm currently a (very) happy customer of 15minuteservers.com.  Their 
service is excellent, response times are great, price/performance is 
terrific, peering is terrific etc.

I am however located in Europe myself (Norway to be exact), and I would 
benefit from faster response times.  Latency between me and the server 
is about 105ms, which is great for Norway <-> US, but still quite a bit.

For this reason, I'm looking for a European hosting company (preferably 
netherlands, UK or somewhere else well connected to Norway, the rest of 
Europe, and the US), which can give me a similar deal to what 
15minuteservers.com is offering.

The thing is that I want to run my own machine, however I want more than 
simple colocation.  I want to rent the hardware as well, so save me the 
hassle of setting up and shipping a machine to a colocaiton provider.  
Not to mention that renting is easier on the initial costs side.

What 15minuteservers.com is offering looks something like this:

Hardware
Enough IPs
Basic FreeBSD install
1TB transfer/month

And all that from $70 and up, depending on hardware specs etc.

Does anyone know of, or want to recommend, a north-european company able 
to offer something similar?

If the same company happened to offer termination, or be located not too 
far from a company that does (network wise), that wouldn't hurt, but 
isn't a requirement.

Hoping for ideas,
Terje Elde
