Anybody else have more information on GPRS networks across Africa?

I found out about Spacefon Areeba in Ghana, and have added it to the list.

Egypt, Kenya, Zimbabwe, where are you?

EconetWireless International may be less sophisticated than I thought then. Aren't they Zim?

Econet is actually a South African company. The guy who started the company had some trouble with Uncle Bob and moved down South with his company. Don't know if Econet still runs a network in Zim. This message was posted from a K700i

Yeah Econet is still in Zim, but not gprs enabled. Yeah Strive had some major issues..I met him a few times when I was in Harare..his a cool guy but at the same time I see why Bob had some issues with him...

OK, Zim is out for now. So is Congo. How about Kenya? That's one country that's setting some paces in telecoms on the continent.

Any info on GPRS networks in Kenya?
