MAE-EAST / WEST Connection Possibilities

Hi!

Does anybody know if the statement

"mfs can offer atm ds3 connection to the mae-west and mae-east ehternet
from colo space"
issued by a german salesperson is true.

According to the www.mfst.com webpage i only see
possiblities for 10 Mbit Ethernet, HSSI or FDDI.

Any help is appreciated!

Could they possibly be speaking for the new MAE-E ATM and MAE-W ATM? They
are based on the cisco ATM switch pretty much just like Pacbell's NAP.

The colo part has me confused. One could connect using a DS3 lite with
Netedges running ATM to MAE-E. But from with in their colo? What would be
the point?

On a side note does anyone have any plans on connecting to
MAE-Dallas/MAE-Dallas ATM??
