Linode, VPS hosting company I'm using, just opened signups to new dataceneter in Europe. This new deployment is located at Telecity Group’s Powergate facility.
Checking tracerote to London from Warsas shows the benefits:

Now packet travels only 50ms to server from Warsaw (Newark location I'm using now has 130ms). It's big improvement.
