BD, Page 1 and Internet pricing. ( Good to see BD going deep into things now ) :-) I would have stirred up a hornets nest ( but took a stand on SPs and lack of delivery ) and am now quite sure it would have not been positive. What EASSY is saying is correct. Teams needs to watch out for what EASSY says. If you want an idea of what really is going on, read BD yesterday and comments from providers ( besides comments from Hon PS Ndemo and Safaricom ). Here's a comparison price ( amatuer info ) : Seacom 1 Mbit Duplex to Service Provider = 600USD ( landed Nairobi via operators ) Satellite 1 Mbit Duplex to Service Provider = 2500USD ( landed nairobi via operators ) Safaricom, in my opinion, is the cheapest it will ever get until its recoups some BTS and infrastructure costs. I suspect in its plan to get clients onto broadband 3g earlier than the cable , it was subsidizing bandwidth to cater for growth. And I also suspect Safaricom have some very smart decison makers and it paid off big time! :-) And if CCK is going to help spur more development in Internet Industry, I think time has come for VISP, a new generation that have no links with the satellite past, ( say License fee of Kshs 10,000/- ) who own partial infrastructure but depend on others. Eg, So in an estate where SPs' have not gone, an individual as an VISP can bring the access, do the billing etc. Virgin is a success story. ( on a different scale as an MVNO ) Corrections are welcome. Rgds.
