@2tek: Yes; Glo 3G packages have limits, as follows:
24-hour plan: 3GB. Outside of that, you are billed 5k per kb
Day plan; Night plan; and Weekend plan: Each has 2GB limit, outside of which you are billed 5k per kb as well
All packages are monthly.
@Coola: the data caps above will impact your cyber cafe service. Of course, being a rural area, the users may not have much to download (though I wouldn't hold my breath; just wait till they discover Youtube!)

Hi guys, happy new year to everyone. Coola, i hope these screen shots, will answer your question. It consists of screen shots from my phone as it concerns mtn 3G at it's best and worst.
.
Thanks a lot! I cannot run a cybercafe with such speeds. I am shocked at how low it can go.
Oh, well. I guess its back to the VSAT Guys. Does anyone know the current prices of VSAT equipment and monthly bandwidth?

@Oluyom: I noticed you have a Samsung Omnia in your arsenal, how do you cope with the battery? My boss has one and his battery does not last a full day. To think that he chose this phone over the iPhone 3G and Xperia X1. He had all three phone to test for 3days before making a choice.

What? He had those to pick from and he chose the Omnia? Apart from the 5megapixel camera, there is
nothing else that the Omnia holds against those others.
I cope well with the Omnia because it serves as a backup device for data. No calls, no SMS, and I use it only when I absolutely have to. To say that the Omnia is a disappointment is an understatement. What were Samsung thinking?

@oluyom..i was thinking of picking up the omnia but since you ve murdered it now guess i'll have to think of another device. I dont emails like that so all the qwerty devices dont trip me. I just need something with 3g so i can use it as back up incase i run out of izap hours. the HSDPA on the omnia got me thinking about it...heard it coulde handle 7mps.

Here's a review of the Omnia. Note that though a phone supports 7mbps, if your network does not offer that speed it makes no difference.
If you want a device as backup, especially with touchscreen, get the Nokia 5800. Very good touchscreen implementation.

@Oluyom: I was as surprised as you when he picked the Samsung omnia over the other two. The following were his reasons.
The X1 fonts were too tiny. Even after increasing the fonts from the settings menu, not all fonts got enlarged. The menu fonts were still very tiny. The phone also got quite warm when making long calls. Apart from the sdb panel, all the other panels did not offer quick access to his most frequently used applications.
iPhone 3g could not compute that numbers with the +234 prefix were the same as those without them. He kept receiving text messages from "unknown" numbers because he had saved his contacts in the 08021234567 format. Also the iPhone couldn't handle his favorite applications.
