Actually, Safcom, Orange and Airtel can all do 42 Mbps if they so wished.
But would users afford the modem?:-)
Its all marketing on Airtel's part.

@Mark, you are correct that coverage and reliability is the final decider. On my Orange testing on 3g, I've hit 800KB/s on this network and not limited to just one place. Ofcourse as they add more users, those speeds will drop. Orange at the moment is doing around 250KB/s to 370KB/sec easily and the latencies are great. Should they sustain this, I'll be their supporter. :-)

@aki I donno what BTS you use but those are really erroneous speeds
you are talking about.
Back when safaricom were still testing the 3g the hsdpa easily hit
200kBps and maintained it. I know the difference btwn bits n bytes and
this is bytes.
safaricom also have that "new" hsupa network that allegedly hits 21mbps.
Any throttling is by the Telco not the tech. guess the network field
is level now. competition will be on the coverage and reliability
front.
