I'm not saying CFMX4J2EE hosting would be on par cost wise as standard CFMX hosting, just that it's something between regular hosting ($20-$50/mo) and co-location ($500-$2000/mo). I know some people are already using this to provide shared hosting to their own clients, I'm not sure if anyone is offering it commercially to the public.
We can't afford co-location for the few sites we have on shared hosts (although for the mission critical sites we do all our own hosting), but if we had a CFMX4J2EE option we would jump at the chance.
