The above is not a misspelling, go to your phone's network Menu and search networks, and see how "Telkom Kenya" is spelt. Thats besides the point, I was searching networks in Town and along Mombasa Road at Parkside Towers and near General Motors and noticed that in addition to Safaricom Limited 3G, I now had Telkom Kemya 3G. Sadly, all my neighbourhood shops do not sell Orange Sim Cards after some enterprising Kenyans along Limuru Road decided to help me out with my old one. Will be getting one after I exhaust my EVDO data bundle and test it out on the IDEOS.
@ Dennis I dont think them simcards (3G) are available yet (dont even have one :) -- you cud also try at westy near the stage ya kwenda kangemi
I thought normal SIM cards would work both 2G and 3G. Safaricom 3G works on my SIM card which popped before 3G. Will get one from those Mobitel shops when my data bundle expires.
What does a sim card have to do with 3G? The sim card is just a physical means of giving you access to the network, the service will be defined in you're profile if you are allowed to use it (normally all subscribers in the network are allowed). So if indeed orange has commercial 3G now, anyone with an orange sim card and a capable device should be able to use the service.
