Legit or speculation? And what tier will 4mb users be moved to when/if this occurs?

I'm waiting for the "It just ****ing works" Tier.

Wild speculation.

Wild speculation.

Time will tell...

PS. Note the "up to"

Coming to an exchange near you - only R1499 a month*

*Includes 1GB data. Topup at R499 a gig.

At least we're eligible for one of those in our area. . .

Eish, imagine what a 40mbps uncapped account will cost you.

I wouldn't mind just one month to feel the speed . Got to stock up on 2/3TB HDDs though :/

That tier option that MickeyD posted seems most likely i think.

If only... I am going to assume 1Mb and 2Mb will stay? After all, we all have to suffer if we don't want to pay for 4Mb

[Mr.CookieMonster]

Making something between 2 to 10mbps is irrelevant at this time, we need "up to 40mbps" at the same price as "up to 10mbps". Wish MSAN's would come to East London already.

Why not ask the other network operators to provide this fixed line service?

[HavocXphere]

They are going to call it reserved ADSL.

Haha. Best response so far.

Nice spot. 6mbps would be awesome for R350 or even 4mbps. But I'm not holding my breath. I can't wait for my 2mbps upgrade.

There isn't much of a gap in the pricing to slot something in there though. That suggests to me that the fastest package is not getting a free speed upgrade to 40mbps/whatever.

*Sigh* yes that too. On the data front we've been making progress though.

Do you reckon the infrastructure can cope with that?

Not yet.

Hence all the "up to's"....
