Hey guys, I couldn't resist saying this: We have a new member from Standard Media ( mshahi(a)standardmedia.co.ke) I only hope he doesn't quote us out of context. I hate to say I was misquoted at some point:-) -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 "I can't hear you -- I'm using the scrambler."

Hi folks, I have 6 DVDs that I need to label professionally. I have the label design ready. Any leads to where I can get this done within Nairobi? >From the Skunkworks Archives I have un-earthed some two likely but ooold recommendations (I'm yet to contact them): *Benson - 0725 200 919 mentioned by Gichingiri Kuria * *Paul from identity brands - 0725681110 mentioned by Oliver Ndegwa* PS : Either direct surface printing or paper printing (Tower W228 label ) will suffice.

Good morning all, We've developed a tool for social media monitoring, listening to what Kenyans online are saying about service providers. Attached is a brief sample. I need guys (that means girls as well) to test the system and give feedback. We're currently collecting reports on ISPs, banks, supermarkets, TV stations and FM stations and more categories to follow. Please sign up here for a free trial<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?fromEmail=true&formkey=dEFwSUU…> Thanks -- Gichingiri Kuria _____________________________________________________________________ www.onabrand.com = customer feedback + reaction analysis + brand health check

HD on Zuku Sattelite
by Kevin Omondi 16 Apr '13

16 Apr '13

Skunks, Is there any Zuku subcriber on this forum who is able to receive the additional HD channels ( Zuku Max HD, Zuku Sports HD) on Sattelite after the migration to the SE5 Transponder. The HD channels are blank. My hypothesis is that I could be having an older decoder ( the black ones) Does Zuku have the HD PVR equivalent to the ones with DSTV ie with HDMI output. Thanks Kevin
