@Aya: apart from calls to other land lines, I do not see considerable savings being made by switching from GSM to cdma. Remember the PTO's do not offer per second billing, so each dropped call, calls terminated at voicemail, or calls under 20seconds duration will all be billed at N20-N25per min. In the long run, you'll end up spending as much as you did with GSM plus you have lost the option of free mms and sms.

Bang! You hit the nail on the head. My business calls are to organizations and individuals who have Fixed or Mobile Wireless lines.
As it is, even a sizeable chunk of my personal, non-business contacts that I would have had to call at N29 per minute on Starcomms have acquired either Fixed Wireless or Mobile Wireless lines on a number of CDMA networks. Now we talk with one another for no more than N9 per minute and often for absolutely nothing (Starcomms on-net calls). Another 4 of my friends gave me their Starcomms and Reltel mobile numbers just on Saturday alone.
I expected that it would have occured to you that a highly intelligent person like myself would have taken all factors into consideration.
No; dear friend; its a win-win situation for me

You guys sticking with GSM are fast becoming an endangered species

@Aya: FYI I have three land lines. One fixed wired, one fixed wireless and one wireless mobile, I'm not endangered.
As you've pointed out, since most of your calls are to fixed lines, it only makes logical sense for you to use a fixed wireless line too. Most of my calls are terminated on GSM networks hence my preference for that medium.
@Angel: have fun in the east, while I keep the fort here in the west.

Just got back to the wired world of Abuja. Since none of the 4 GSM networks have considered my hometown worthy of a single base station, I was cut off from the world. Thank God for Satellite TV: God TV, FETV and BBC World kept me happy.
I am back in Abuja and may spend the New Year here (boooouuuring) Maybe I will look for someone to go bowling with....hmmm
