For instance you may want to see what the speed is like from CableVision in central NJ to your network in South Florida or the latency etc. I go large scale I wanted to know how much demand there was for such a service.

There appear to be a few things like this, eg: Raintank and the RIPE Atlas project that have fairly diverse views.  I’m not aware of anything with perfect penetration.

I’m sure there are others, but these are the two I’m aware of.
