@ coola,
Yes, it's open to all Sky TV subscibers, irrespective what Sky viewing package you have subscribed to.
All the info can be found in the link that I posted, in my previous post.
In a nutshell, this is the broadband packages that they offer:
BASE
up to 2Mb speed and 2GB monthly usage allowance. There is a £40 one-off set-up fee (lol), but it's free thereafter.
MID
up to 8Mb speed and a monthly 40GB usage allowance. This costs £5 a month. Also has a one-off set-up fee.
MAX
up to 16Mb and unlimited usage, plus free home installation. This costs £10 a month.

@francoislr: Can you believe it, I don't own a PC...but I should get one though but can't make my mind up...will it be a Pentium4 or an Athlon processor?
BTW, I use AgileMessenger to connect to MSN, Yahoo and ICQ.

When I finally meet you in person, I will like to take a good look at your thumb(s), my boet. I mean, to do over >500 posts in Esato WITHOUT a PC... must hurt somewhere.
I made my small review about "Sahara" over at the Naija thread. Anyone watched it? Does Hollywood give accurate protrayal of South African cities and cultures in thier movies? The "Lagos" in Sahara was a fiction of the Producer's imagination.

@ francois,
Yes there is pretty much a broadband war on the go here,and landline operators are also fiercely competing...a real pity SA's Telkom has ensured that it's got the landline market secure in its firm clutches.
It's not all singing and dancing here though...SA's cell network data rates make a mockery of the overpriced UK data rates...
I now only use WAP if I'm far away from a PC for quite a few hours, and want to either 'esato' or when I check out the mobile version of the BBC's site for news and sport etc.

ROLMAO @ coola: There's nothing wrong with my fingers. In fact I write most posts from my workstation...probably around 60% and on my phone I've developed a technique whereby I only use the thumb on my right hand to type messages. Also T9 makes posting on Esato so much easier...I'm so good at it that I can do it in the dark. Even though I own a Nokia, SonyEricsson's are still the best when it comes to T9 implimentation.

Since my teenage years I've been put off by religion. Haven't gone to church in years, the last time I was in one was to cover Brett Kebble's funeral service.

@ jmash,
Still in their good books?LOL, if you are frowned upon by any one in that congregation for forsaking the 'body' (ie. church), then you may want to refresh their memories on at least 3 points made in the good book:
1. The reason behind a certain parable concerning a prodigal son,..would Jesus purposefully make you feel ostracised as some sort of punishment for your absence, instead of welcoming you back into the fold?
2. About not judging others...let them first take the 'log' out of their own eyes before identifying the 'splinter' in yours
3. Isn't there enough references about the importance of forgiveness for them to chew on and analyse, particularly in the New Testament?...maybe they're missing something then...
Honestly, I have very little time for people who would do things like that to you, without them blatantly following or understanding the basic fundamentals of the religion they supposedly practise.
If people like these deem that they are worthier and holier than thou on the grounds that their level of attendance is way better than others, they can kiss my pert rear.
Please don't get me wrong, I'm not generalising all followers obviously, only those who would have those sentiments towards you because of your absence, or those who manifest hypocritical behaviour under the guise of staunch religious fervour.

You're right wanqsta.Some folks don't really understand the meaning of Christianity or any other religion.They go to church just because it's tradition.Frown at me for my absence,they you're fake Christian!
