Isn't villamoura a really expensive resturant? That's just wrong! But then again, there a are alot of over priced bars here as well. Maybe one day when I grow up then I'll go eat there

Go to any mall in Joburg, and for a vending machine coke you'll be paying R15. Dont know where you're getting your 2l coke from though! WW is usually the same when it comes to a coke...
Maybe the billing works differently, but i've used mxit for over 2 weeks on a blocked contract.

Cool! 100 000 views...should increase...=)
Anyway, couple of article links from Neotel's website:
'SA warms to 3G and mobile data usage'
http://www.neotel.co.za/neote[....]/en/page432?oid=9109&sn=Detail
"VWire 'brings true mobility to SA'"
http://www.neotel.co.za/neote[....]/en/page132?oid=9017&sn=Detail
Another article about the Big Bad Wolf we all know as MXIT...
"Alarm bells ring over cellphones at schools"
http://www.neotel.co.za/neote[....]/en/page132?oid=8723&sn=Detail
So, why everybody else so quiet?

Oh ja, and my quote is what you will pay at a 24hr garage, usually the most expensive place to get anything. Pretoria is not that bad at all. My GF has mentioned some of the Cape Town prices, and I thought that was pretty ridiculous. Suppose one knows where to get stuff when you live somewhere...
Server Restart...gotta go now...

i remember once going up to a vendor at Carnival City, where i was attending a show. The dude wanted R12 for a 340ml can, which was insane.

Like at Lost City, there were times Beer was cheaper than Sodas. Quite the b!tc# when you are 12 years old...

Good to hear about your choice. Are you taking the M600 on contract?
Had a hectic day at work...nothing seemed to be falling into place but thankfully my bosses understand the pressure I'm working under.
