Hi Solomon. Finally ,iam not alone in this rethinking of mobile transactions, I have been unhappy with the cost of having Mobile transaction for the whole period, but Yesterday something seriously was clicking in my head.I am very concerned as I can to realized that conventional banking is more cheap and when the Transcation is not resulting into a sizable profit. These guys are taking money like their own.In Tanzania its only worth it loading your phone when on wants to pay for utility.Anything else is a liability. I support you.We need something new,either new payment model for the existing one or a completely different approach. -- Regards, Nicholas Peter.* Kinpro Computers.* *Box:*16954,Arusha. *Tel :*+255 732 972287. *Mobile**:* +255 754 914652 *Email: *kinprocomputers@gmail.com

What does the rest of the tech community think? -- Solomon Kariri, Software Developer, Cell: +254736 729 450 Skype: solomonkariri ____________________
