    Gumtree SA data breach?

    Tweets can be long these days. Near the end. But I'm not sure how the other countries are all linked. Seems pretty separate. A few things don't add up. Hence I'm not running for my pitchfork just yet.

    Gumtree SA data breach?

    Today, Google notified me that my Gumtree account had been compromised. Not an uncommon occurrence for a South African nowadays but it's a large website so I was intrigued. I did a quick Google and found very little about it except the below X post in February 2024. Does anyone know if this...

    Afrihost Mobile Feedback

    Switched two phones to the AirMobile SIMs tonight after following all the porting instructions. The one phone ported over to the new SIM just fine and happily connected. The other, an iPhone, I'm still waiting on the confirmation OTP SMS. Anyone else had delays getting connected?

    Afrihost Mobile Feedback

    This is still a bit ambiguous. "For now" meaning that at some stage it will shutdown and existing customers will have to get a new SIM? Which I'm happy to plan for but it'd be nice to actually be told what is going on. Especially in advance of all the fanfare aimed at new customers.

    The Q&A on the AirMobile landing pages says the following about existing clients: "I have an existing Air Mobile Prepaid (Pre Feb 2024) package. What happens now? Air Mobile Prepaid (Pre Feb 2024) products use MTN SIM cards, so you must port your number to the new AirMobile MVNO." So must I...

    Afrihost AirMobile eSIM sign-up tested

    Sorry if I missed it but what does this all mean for existing AirMobile clients? I tried to sign for the promotion through the new app but it insists on sending me a new SIM card which seems like a hack. Will my existing sim card not do the job?

    iAmdissapointed - First time apple product owner.

    OP your options are: overseas account, jailbreak it or get an android tablet. Personally, I believe this is something you should have researched before buying the device. Its not like regional content restrictions are an Apple only specific phenomenon. But ignore me, I'm just sick and grumpy.

    Apple has lost it's innovation

    OP, why has Apple lost its innovation? If you look at the companies history, there are greater periods than a few years where ground-breaking products weren't released. Does Apple then keep losing and then finding their inspiration over again? If anything, you should blame Apple's competitors...

    BBM for iPhone 4

    Interestingly, it is very different in other markets like the US. Due to the relatively low market share in these markets, BBM is not a factor that keeps people buying BB. Rumours have it that as so many people are leaving the BB platform to join their friends on Android or iOS, RIM is...
