Perhaps instead of enumerating ISP's one by one the best way to figure this out could be to partner with someone like the EFF. When the EFF had the Tor Relay challenge it seemed very successful, perhaps there could be a "Tor ISP Exit challenge" where the goal is to get as many independant ISP organizations to commit to running 1 High speed Exit for 6-12 months ? Obviously much harder to co-ordinate but might be the best way to convince many ISP's all at once that running an exit is a feasible option for their customers (plus good press). -Jason

Sounds great, please do!
Also, while we're on the topic of good interactions with ISPs, let me reiterate something I said back in November:
""" I worry about the "slash and burn agriculture" approach to running Tor relays, where you set up an exit relay, and if anybody gets angry you move on to another ISP. That approach is really appealing since it's simple, but it assumes the Internet is infinite. If in fact we're destroying land without regard to sustainability, and we run out of land...
Today's interactions with ISPs influence Tor's future viability. """
