I'm looking for 5gb - 10gb. Cheapest but best latency for skype talking. Will be using for work and personal.

As far as I can see, OpenWeb saix and Sainet (saix accounts?) are the cheapest.

Any help is appreciated. :)

I had the same need and found that Verizon accounts were the best for Skype calls - low latency as they use international fibre and they are unshaped. Better than SAIX unshaped on international IMO. If it's mainly local you want then SAIX unshaped may be better.

http://www.vanilla.co.za is pretty good for Verizon unshaped. And as a bonus, you get a SAIX unshaped backup login with every verizon one. So if Verizon have issues one day, you simply use the SAIX login.

Web Africa offers the same: ADSL Unshaped Multi-Realm Overview.

But yeah, any SAIX unshaped account is your best bet. :)

WA = R125/gig or R500 for 4Gb
Vanilla = R119/gig or R290 for 3Gb (R140 per gig over cap - charged per Mb)

One complaint with Vanilla was the fact that there is no cap - if you have a mass mailing worm, you can end up with a surprise bill!
