Don't forget the inverse: to people in Australia and New Zealand,
web sites based Canada and the US are extremely slow. Does _your_
web page have an off-continent mirror? 

Until more trans-oceanic fiber is laid, it's good policy to
seek out mirror arrangements. And yes, as you suggest, advertise 
them on the intro screen. but remember, this works both ways. 

Part of the problem is finding other sites willing to mirrow yours.
