just beware, don't take the map as gospel, its just a guide, in the very broad sense of the word :) , don't make any relocation or purchasing decisions based on it, the map can be very wildly over-optimistic in some areas :D
its a great tool, but be sure to take along a real HSDPA modem to check the realworld on the ground coverage, as you may find that the maps shows great coverage all around the area ur looking at, but on the street there may be no coverage at all, or 1bar coverage but unusable for connection.

Errr..where on that link does it show HSDPA coverage? I only see "3G Coverage". Surely that's not the same thing? I get 3G where i am, but most certainly not HSDPA (based on speeds and the way my modem blinks with a slow blue led vs. the fast blue led if you get HSDPA)....

Please forgive me if im just being stupid but I cannot get the search by street level to work. With the new data HSDPA package from MTN im keen to consider it instead of ADSL but only if I can get HSDPA speeds on it, but I cannot seem to get that search by street feature to work :/

I found it didn't work on Firefox. Still no 3G coverage in my area :( Vodacom has though but I'm happy with iBurst :D
