does anyone have any experience with peering in S. America? I am

Any recommendations would be appreciated. The one i did find was
Terremark, but no others yet.
Adam,
If you want connectivity to Latin America (inc. S. America) from the
US (LA & NY), then you probably want to be at NOA in Miami. That is
a Terremark facility, but lots of carriers are there. Look at their
carrier customer list and you will see all of the carriers connected
to them in Miami:
Most people (including the facility itself) call it "NotA". :)
Terremark runs an IX in Miami with lots of "south of the border"
networks, as well as the one in São Paulo, which is probably the one
you found.
Other than that, there's another IX in São Paulo just a few miles from
the Terremark facility with some additional, as well as some
duplicate, carriers.
Besides São Paulo, I do not know any IXes in SA with lots of good
peering, but would love to be educated.
