How long after the JHB/PTA launch must I wait to sign up with Cell C ?

I don't want to commit to the Cell C data promotion until there is some evidence that Gauteng is not going to put major strain on the network, Which would result in the rest of the country's speed and service declining.

Are my fears justified ? Will there be no difference in the way the network functions in Durban after the Gauteng launch ? How long must I wait until I decide to get the data package ?
 
Up to you. But if you wait, you loose the best of these few months when all bandwith is available to you and few others. :)

Gauteng launch will not effect network in Durban at all.
 
If you have good 3G signal in the areas where you're going to use it most, don't see much point waiting. Every ISP might have issues, Cell C not excluded but their offering is something which breaks the current 3G ISP pricing monopoly and they deserve credit and support at least for that.
 
So a week after the Gauteng launch, have any of you guys in Durban experienced any degrading of the service ?
 
How can one find out which areas in Pretoria will be covered (or not covered) by Jan/Feb 2011?
