EU datacenters won't fix anything, since per Yoshida's post on the beta forums the server does a position check every 0.3 seconds. This means that the minimal latency you will EVER get with the current code is 300ms. At least when it comes to positioning, which is the main problem. The additional latency of a server being on the other side of the globe does add to it, of course. But unless they make position checking faster, local data centers won't fix much.

As for my latency, I have about the same 200-300ms to both NA and JP servers. So for me, the NA data center is just as useless.
