Is anyone else worried about O2’s current state (fearing the
worst) or is it just me?



If they have gone tits up - can anyone recommend another hosting co with
similar features at a similar price (or is that the problem???)

Well the company used for hosting is http://www.communitech.net/, who
are now part of Interland (who are god damn huge). From memory their
network has connections out via multiple Tier1 ISPs, hence the reason
for the high availability.

If you had a server from Communitech and another one from let's say One
and One in the UK, I think it would be possible, with a budget of less
than $250 per month, to ensure total 100% availability.
