This isn't a direct answer to your question, but our use-case is not latency sensitive (and not even particularly uptime sensitive). So far we've got near 100% uptime and if we needed more we could put multiple servers behind a load balancer. That wouldn't help much with latency -- for that I'd think you need some geographic distribution -- exactly what a CDN is good for.

Ah yep, makes perfect sense.
