when safaricom backed out on their super cheap wimax offerings, They lost a lot of potential investment in those technologies they are rolling out. It would make extreme sense to market MPLS with a2Mbps Link at KES 7k. I know a ton of customers i have had to resort to public VPN over sim cards, sometimes multiple for redundancy just because the cost of last mile became inaffordable...

Hmm actually for any of these SP's to compete in the 'mens' arena, they have to redesign. They cant compete on either quality or price and win. They can be clever with their products and support but I have yet to see that sort of creativity in those teams.

telkom is one sleeping giant, doesnt make it any less a giant because it is sleeping, just sleeping. They have the whole country as a single, fiber LAN. What they lack is someone in Marketing and customer centric staff...
