Anyone able to use this?

My N96 picks up the channels but I cannot subscribe?

It is only a trial service at this stage - your SIM will have to be enabled to use it. I know MultiChoice has a few DVB-H towers up around the country, but not available for commercial use just yet. I think they are only waiting for spectrum from ICASA before launching a service...

Thanks for the info. How do I get my sim activated? Must MTN do it or Multichoice?

i've tried it with samsung dvb-h phone one or two years ago.
yes, rpm is correct. you need a dvb-h enabled sim.
the quality was okay, but it was only a few channels available at that time.

I have a Nokia N96 with DVB-H.

Get uSim. Call MC. I think if you're already a DStv subscriber you can participate in the trial for free. There are 10 channels in the trial which they continually switch.
