Yes, about 10x increase in page hits per day from the July average.

Not think, but do. The bandwidth to the outside is not the current bottleneck, but the servers themselves. The load averages are pretty insane.

Yes, it's on the roadmap. http://wiki.maemo.org/ISP_Move is where I collected some of the things that need to happen.

Schedule is such that we are waiting for the new ISP to get their machine room wired and hardware boxes set up, after which we'll start setting up the services. Setting up is no picnic, so I expect a switchover somewhere in December. I hope earlier, but let's see.
