Hi Coolapostle.
I haven't used GPRS since they started charging for it but from what I heard it's overpriced and people have been turned off and would rather use the internet if they wanted information.
BTW I hope you guys aint taking the result of the football too badly. South Africans have been suffering for 10 years at the hands of the Super Eagles.

@brix. Football, schmidt! I have no problems with the results, but then I am not the average Nigerian (I'm not into football that much)
A lot of Nigerians ARE taking it badly. Areafada at the Proudly Nigerian thread says he abandoned d bedroom to his wife and daughter after we lost d match
, and slept in d sitting room. Hear! Hear!!

Craig, if you're on MTN GPRS and using one of the EDGE-capable handsets availabe (Nokia 6230 all I can think of) then you should be able to have faster downloads...if you need more clarity just call those guys at MTN 173 they're always willing to help.
BTW saw that their revenues in Nigeria had slowed down because of they're expanding their network in that country.

Anyone went to the Black Eyed Peas concert in Cape Town last night? I was there and it surely rocked.

So some bird whispered in my ear that Vodacom has gone live with 3G in all the big cities. Last week MTN said they would probably be launching 3G by the middle of next year( I think that will depend on the availability of handsets and the enthusiasm by users).
Vodacom has made a scoop by securing Vodafone Live content for it's subscribers...so now South Africans with 3G phone will be able to catch English Premierships highlights hours after the games have finished.

@Brix Can you give me a guess of the number of GPRS subs on all the netwroks? Hey... no one has mentioned CellC in this thread. What do you have to say about the network?
