congratulations y'all, now you get to go back to work tomorrow and your suffering continues cos now there's going to be a shortage of the product to show that the price increase is a necessity. thats nice.

@234h: unless u're a real biz exec that gets crucial email that need instant responses, the email on any SE phone suffices. this blackberry offer is just for show offs! I check my mail (abu@awoof.com) periodically thru out the work day and at a cheaper cost than subscribin to MTN's offer. even on my old T630 the MY FRIENDS section handles IM fine. i'm surprised that more people dont use it

The only thing we gained from that strike is that NLC,knowingly or unknowingly,has signed that govt is free to increase,even double or triple petrol price after one year.Perhaps they think that one year is eternity.Keeps me wondering whether Nigerians are not worse for it.

@ abubakar: like you said ''just for showoffs". They know that most of its Nigerian customers like ''efizee'' and don't know any better so they give them BlackBerry.
From what I read on this forum, you seem to know a lot about Starcomms. I use starcomms at home. What I would like to see though is a pay as you surf package. I emailed their help desk once and I was told there exists such a package but its quite expensive. If you happen to know anyone in the "corridors",do tell them to follow in the steps of Multilinks but they should not adopt a hook, line and sinker approach.
@ all: does anyone know any other place with wi-fi access besides the Palms or the Galleria; free or paid for

@234h: the problem with pay as you go is the billing. a friend of mine using multilinks told me that though they were charging N525 per day (pre 10% vat) if had problems with:
1. it has to be loaded on the day before you want to use it, and
2. if ur balance isnt up to N525, they would take whats left at midnight and not let you browse. he'd load N1000 1day and lose N475 the next.

@234h: the 2nd problem is resolvable, but the 1st isnt. for a daily withdrawl of the money it has to be done at a single set time, midnight being the most obvious. what i would like to see from Starcomms is a greater number of time slot options. (eg weekends only).

@uchrik: i've marked the day on my calendar: 20th june 2008
thats the day i start buying fuel in 50litre kegs and keep them in my bathroom! a few days later when
a) there is an increment of 100 % or
b) there's another strike against the increment and all stations are close
i'll sell them like an oil Sheik!
