I'm not bothered by the 3Gb cap as such - in three months I have not managed anything close to that. What bugs me is that at times, I cannot even stream media at 56kbits - pathetic for a so called 512kbit DSL connection.
I cannot wait for the second provider to get online - seems like they will be offering T1 connection speeds to your doorstep at comparative international rates as opposed to the current Telkom rip-off.
Unfortunately I'm forced to live with the [}:)] bandwidth as I do a lot of remote development etc. Not terribly impressive and again a great example of how a monopoly stuffs up potential technological gains to the end user.
But then again , what was I expecting ... (after waiting 8 months for a connection)
