No point being vocal while I'm still paying such a ridiculous amount for my broadband.Hmmm, no post on this subject. I guess that just shows the “indifference”, for lack of a better word; that consumers are feeling at the moment.
It doesn't take a rocket scientist to calculate the pent-up demand for someone to stick it to Telkom. Better brush up on the iron fist technique so I can stick them with my finger when the time arrives.Smit said he was extremely optimistic concerning Neotel's prospects. "People underestimate the pent-up demand for a competitor to Telkom." He said Neotel had the world as its oyster with the right strategy in place and the backing of Tata and VSNL's 140-year track record in telecoms. Its success would depend on its ability to execute on that, Smit said.
All good and well, but when will the savings filter down to the consumer? Especially with the cell service providers.MacRobert wouldn't be drawn on just how attractive Neotel's pricing was, but said it would not be using the operator if it were more expensive than Telkom. Like Smit, MacRobert is optimistic concerning the potential of Neotel to make an impact on the market.
