Can you get uncapped mobile data?

Isnt Mobile Data Uncapped? The only problem is you pay your gat af for OOB.

As for "Making Copies of the SIM", isnt that what DataSIM's are for?

Not in SA, but outside of SA e.g. Vodafone UK, one can get uncapped HSDPA at a fixed monthly price, but countries like the UK do not have Telkodemonopolies & its exorbitant pricing and monopolistic practices.

Hopefully this will change in July 2009 when SEACOM is up and running and Telkodemonopolies' monopoly over SAT-3 is rendered impotent, then there's still the issue of backhaul links which Telkodemonopolies charges arms & legs for.
Since when do you work for Telkom?! :eek:

Thats not what HelloThere wants to do ... afaik
Agreed on both issues.

I think the word uncapped is ambiguous.

The first meaning what you said ic, and the other meaning how i understand it. And how i understand uncapped is limitless data (disregarding the costs involved).

I dont work for Telkom. My best buddy did though, i envied him... he had all the bandwith and all the time to download whatever. Now he dont work there no more. So sad...

But isnt having DataSIM's the same as having copies of SIM's? AFAIK you can 3 DataSIM's on a contract, so logically you're using 3 different SIM for Data for 3 Different Users. Or am i missing something?

Telkodemonopolies' idea of uncapped data is to leech itself onto a customer's wallet & haemorrhaging the customer's money until there is nothing left to suck out of the wallet.

Uncapped Data means a limitless supply of data for a fixed price - usually charged per month.

Any other definition of "Uncapped Data" is simply unacceptable from a consumer POV.

Understood.
 
I'm still pleased with my uncapped data plan on my phone but you are obviously limited to what you can do with it.
 
Wouldnt you be loving it more if they released a HSDPA Ready Blackberry... :rolleyes:
Probably, especially for those big email uploads, but bird in the hand and all that. ;)
