Check with Deru before you write off DSL.

Deru has a great rep ( and Darin participates on the list ). In my
experience Deru also has people who know what they're doing.

A lot of people like FastQ. I don't like that they block ping, but
otherwise my experiences have been good.

$work has ensynch and we've been less than impressed.

A couple of people were posting about community-style co-lo in the last
year or so. I don't remember details, but check the list archives.

Check the archives for several other threads about co-lo.

ciao,
