Heroku please launch new regions! I really hope you guys launch in Sao Paulo, Brazil.

Yep. Wouldn't hurt to have Tokyo regions as well for Asia.
They do in fact launch Tokyo as a region in combination with this announcement! (together with Frankfurt, Germany and two US regions) As all these places are AWS regions and this service most likely is built upon VPC I don't think it's a too wild guess that this service will eventually be available in all AWS regions (https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/global-infrastructure/)
Yes i saw. I should have made clear i mean for standard Heroku instances.
We'll probably soon move out of Heroku exactly because of this, makes no sense to have our stuff in the States when our user base is in Tokyo.
