The news is it has been delayed until Jan/Feb.

But it is DEFINITELY coming. I think we have enough proof now from the random rumours to say that it is happening. Heck, Telkom even started talking about it back in 2007.

But the trial will only start now in the new year. Sorry guys. Just be a little bit more patient.

I'll just leave this right here.

dont worry my friends telkom loves everybody and soon everybody will feel the full force of telkom .....

but where?

I don't give a rat's shiny poophole where you leave it.

Nobody is forcing you to believe me. What you gonna do about it anyway? Cry over your coffee?

If you want it... it will come. If you don't want it... then carry on.

Unfortunately that's not the way the world works and flooding every thread you find with rumours certainly won't help either.

 

[KillerB]

Well it must come before or after the soccer matches that's for sure coz telkom then have optic fiber though the whole of south africa...

 

[Srack0verflow]

Oooh, whatcha gonna do? sue me?

I'm not the only one on this board who knows about the 8 mbps trial. It's a done deal. But nobody is forcing you to read these threads.

Hey look - I can do it too. Apparently Multichoice will be trialing a free package aimed at competing directly with SABC. See? Easy.

Maybe this website should be renamed to myrumours.co.za, mybandwagon.co.za or imminent.co.za seeing as how front page articles seem to be following the same pattern.

Download a 1GB file and see if you get the same average speed result.
