I was under the impression Blizzard would not put servers in Aus / NZ because monitary issues with the ISPs?
I would think that putting servers in Hawaii could serve the Oceanic players better than any sever on the mainland USA. What I was trying to say in my first post (sorry if this was not clear to people) is that adding servers to an existing US State/Territory (maybe even the marshall islands) would help rid some of the problems that oceanic players experience, at no financial hardship to Blizzard.

Put simply, there are probably at least 10-15X more WoW subscribers in the Oceanic region then in Hawaii (and thats a conservative estimate), and if we find it impossible to get servers here, I'm sure you will find it 10-15X more impossible to get them in Hawaii.

On a side note, where exactly is Hawaii considered to be located? According to most maps I have seen, Hawaii is considered in Oceana.
I will let you try to tell all of these people that they are not from or living in the same region.
