@ Rahim, I hope that there's a lot and not just some truth in that. I
ditched Suffercicon for Orange two months ago and i welcome all improvements
in their speeds.
Oh, and a cost/benefit analysis shows at present it's miles ahead of the
other mobile networks. and am talking about Orange GSM and not CDMA.
In this talk about Cost/Benefit let's not be like the mice who wanted to
bell the cat. Let's criticise but more importantly let this be practical
with suggestions. I have also ditched Suffericon voice. Sasa niko Yuu tu
sana, for example.
Am surprised though that Alex Gakuru, who sang Orange praises as far back as
a year ago minds that they are improving their speeds.

well, I tend to agree with Alex in his front but frankly speaking, at
the moment, I'm more hopeful about the orange bwidth increase
specially If it's moving away from the edge.
I moved away from suddericom as well a few months ago, I'm now with
Zain and horej! An I'm glad I made the shift.
If they do decide to move to 4G, I believe that would also open the
front to the iTunes store for Kenya. From my grapevine, the wait on
our store opening is the restriction on bwidth.
I will try and find out more about the 4g as well as get more info on
the app store for Kenya
Happy new year
Ooohh almost forgot.

Just out of curiousity, all those service providers now have a unified
license, dont they? So they can offer wifi / wimax, right? I wonder
what would happen if all of kenya were turned into a wifi hotspot.
Shared infrastructure, low cost of deployment, max number of ssid per
frequency band, multiple business models. . . . Yawah!
