Actually the word "unlimited' as I read it is not being redefined...if
the guy that sold me my motorbike told me it had unlimited speed and
removed the speedometer, I would never be bothered that its top speed
is 320Kmph.I've never hit more than 190 .... most (please don't bash
me for saying 'most') internet users regular usage at any one time
rarely goes beyond 24 - 50kbps (graph your connection during regular
browsing) ...... for this users, this offer is perfect.....

...to explain it a little further; on a highway (even kenyan ones),
you do have UNLIMITED access to the roads, you can use it as much as
you want ;to go wherever you want; as many times as you want; you just
can't drive as FAST as you want....for several reasons, often good
reasons, the best one being that there are other road users....:-)

So in this case you do have unlimited access to the internet from
Safaricom through their network on those advertised bundles, you can
browse/go anywhere anytime, use whatever protocol etc...just not as
fast as you want.

..for heavy users and maybe if you need sustained high throughputs;
more than the 'throttled' out of purchased bundle speeds, a call to
the safaricom business unit should resolve your problem, whether or
not it costs more is fully dependent on your requirements.

HTH...
