    Will the call costs will be as cheap as the website?
    And asking for an e-mail if I want to know more? Why don't they just provide information on the website - it's what it is there for I would guess?

    Why is it that us Africans want to call everything "A REVOLUTION"?

    Marketing fail. Launch your website when there is content.

    Not even a nice little logo graphic next to the web address, not to mention there is no page title (<title>) assigned to any page except the home page. And they've tried to make it seem fine by writing "BETA" on what appears to be a very minimal CMS at best ... you can't just write BETA when you have a press release saying page is launched ... eish :/

    Even me, when I had DA ... I would first consult MyBB to tear my page to shreds so I could fix it up before "launching" ...

    Better luck next time.

    Why does MyBB never put external links to these places/websites in articles?
    Must always copy / google to find out..

I find this extremely surprising as SA is always described as the most established african country. An yet we pay like crazy.

    Check out Airtel Africa for rates.
    Dont believe the hype. South Africa is as 3rd world as they come.

    Agreed ... in Mauritius, if you are on the same network, call costs you 36c per min. And an international sms is like 25c or something, here it is R1.50.

    I don't know hey I've heard this guy speak at MyBB and he knows what he is talking about. He also built up ECN pretty big before he sold it so I wouldn't write him off just yet.

    Few people are interested in the yap-yap, they want to see the real thing.

    Holdsworth revolution sounds like a Steel Pulse song.

    Good luck Holdsworth.

    As South Africans we need local communication to stay within our borders and private.
    I'll never use Whatt's App or that BBM thing and have my communication leave our borders just because it's cheap.
    My ISP’s
    TelkomSA (Do3) - Axxess (international prepaid) - Axxess (Local prepaid) MWeb (Uncapped) - Afrihost (Free 1GB)
    All good no complaints.

    As a member of Homo Sapiens that worked in many different countries* and use the internet daily, I never get this border thing.
    I just use what does the job best.

    I am assuming he means he does not want his IM's to be routed via a server that is not hosted in SA?

    In that case I rather trust foreign governments over ours.
