WiMax save us !!!! if you do a bit of research, 3G n pre 4G standards perform well in testbeds and give speeds that make youtube streaming easy as texting. but the thing is that their implementation is really costly and the market cannot/ does not offer a good ROI if they deploy them as they should. the Last mile curse. there is an Ericsson clip :Speed Of Change. takes your multimedia imagination away. just how many kenyans clock 35MB of data per month on their mobile access??

I have to provide my bills, my girl friends bills, pay a deposit , buy a locked modem. All this hassle for "unlimited internet" which was once so slow that it hurt. Oh, and there was that time that they threatened customers who quit the contract when Zain internet slowed down to a crawly 2kbps.
No thank you, they can keep their "unlimited offer"

EDGE <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enhanced_Data_Rates_for_GSM_Evolution
bandwidth 236.8 kbit/s so that's up to 30KB/s data transfer - pretty sure that's better than pre-seacom. On a phone that should be reasonable.

Am curious. Seeing as Zain doesnt have 3G, will it make much of a difference in terms of speeds whether they are on Seacom or not?

Man is a gregarious animal and enjoys agreement as cows will graze all the same way to the side of a hill!

It is better to die in dignity than in the ignomity of ambiguous generosity!
