OK, I've decided to dump cdn77.com in favor of Akamai.  It turns out 
Rackspace CloudFiles is served over the Akamai network but at a cheap 
price.  It's a bit of a pain since I needed to upload my entire static 
directory to it but the price and quality are worth it.

Also, I shrunk 4 images on the homepage that was nearly a combined total of 
1 MB.  After shrinking, they are about 150 KB so this should significantly 
speed things up, as well.

Would you mind giving it one more try from Sao Paolo, Bruno?  I'll ping 
another friend of mine in India to test it there, too.


Cheers!

I just chatted with tech support at cdn77.com and they said the Sao Paolo 
server is "overloaded".I'll play with these guys for a bit and 
look at other options in my price range.

For those in South America, I added a CDN with an origin in Sao Paolo so 
would you mind giving it a try again?  I'm hoping this will speed things up 
quite a bit.


Cheers!

I didn't test my site on an iphone but the template was supposed to work on 
it any way.  I'll look into it later today.

It's really quick to load the HTML from Chicago because I'm using 
Rackspace's Chicago hub -- it better be fast!  :)

There's not much I can do about the analytics pixel but since it's at the 
bottom, it won't block user's from using the website.

As for the site loading slowly in South America, I might be able to speed 
things up by adding a CDN but I don't know what that'll run me.  If the 
price is not insane, I'll set it up.
