Finally Leaving iBurst!

[dgcarter]

You can bank on it that iBurst will allow other ISPs a bitstream service.

Meaning...??

I would still have ADSL if our lines were not stolen... After the 5th time in 8 months Telkom gave our area the middle finger and then tried to make up for it with... wait for it... 3G!!! Big effing whoop!

Anyhoo, Screamer is coming next week to do a signal test, their prices are quite good, Unlimited 384 kbps @ R 396. It's just the initial cost of the hardware that makes me SCREAM! R 2999 once-off RENTAL fee. But then again, look at what an iBurst modem costs you.
