Sprint, PacBell, Ameritech, MAE-East, and MAE-West all count I think.

MAE-East, Sprint, PacBell, and Ameritech I think.

As per the NSF 93-52 solicitation and award, there are 3 official Primary NAPSs
and one Interconnect point (secondary NAP):
  
  San Francisco NAP (Pacbell & Bellcore)
  New York NAP (Sprint - actually in Pennsaucken New Jersey)
  Chicago NAP (Ameritech & Bellcore)

The interconnect point (secondary NAP):

  Washington DC (MFS DataNet - aka DC NAP and Mae-East).
