That offer on the V800 (R185/pm) is very tempting if I didn't have any reservations about the overt branding and Vodafone Live I would've taken it...
Guess I'll wait till next year.

I think it would be best to wait and see *Z800, K600, Sakura* SE fans will be tempted in the upcoming months.

Hello buddies ! This morning,I have connected for the first time from my laptop -> bluetooth -> 6230 -> EDGE -> MTN at around 100Kbps/230Kbps up/down ! ! ! I am from Jeffreysbay and the speed is what I have measured by uploading/downloading ftp files ! Mtn will soon be finished upgrading the whole network and then I could "video chat" (simplex or half duplex) while my wife drives the caravelle around :-) I also hope the network is not going to get slower while more and more people uses it !

@mario: That's good news considering J-bay is just a small town. On a lighter note you should post this in the Nigerian thread, guys there are complaining about the poor GPRS service from their network providers.

Brix, there is something I don't understand about the download speed ! Can it really be so high ? While the network seem to support it,certailly the cellphone does not ! Or do I have the wrong specs ? Or the network uses file compression ? Do you know the 6230 edge specs ? Do different firmware support higher speeds then originally stated ? Greetings from Jeffreysbay :-)

If your MTN handsets displays YELLO BROADBAND for Cell broadcast.It means that bstation is edge enabled.With edge you can not do Video calls on a phone but maybe via a web cam.....Vodacom is also rolling out edge but spending more on 3G.Vodacom wants to cover where ever it has 2g with 3G in 18 months.This can be achieved before 18 months.

@Tahir: Weren't you the same one who said on here that MTN were struggling to roll out EDGE...if they've got it in a place like J-Bay it surel means it's available nationwide.
