still on telcos, verizon has just introduced prepaid broadband to the US. The big deal is that prepaid is relatively a new concept there. Looking at the prices they charge for this service will make you understand why zain are in such a hurry to dispose their African assets .
Verizon charges $10 for 100 MB. that is 3 bob more per MB than saf charges for the same amount . this goes to as much as $60 for 1GB of data. (credit news.cnet.com)
such might be the reason that Zain is willing to divest from Africa. Africa is only fit for african /Asian telcos!

Safaricom has not provided the specific information requested 2 days ago. The next step i am taking is to lodge a formal complaint with CCK.
Will keep you posted,
