NeeTel ADSL imminent? - news to me, but if it's the local telecoms definition of [searchforum]imminent[/searchforum], then ADSL from NeeTel must be about 5 years away from realisation...

Also news to me. NeoTel has, afaik, no plans to provide ADSL services to consumers in the near future. Neotel do have plans to deliver basic voice and Internet services using CDMA2000 - A point-to-multipoint wireless technology.
But ISP's should be, in the near future, free to buy bandwidth, that should (hopefully) be cheaper than Telkom, through NeoTel. Then sell this to the consumer.

I heard residential services later this year
Well, lets hope the come in with at least 8mbit or even 10mbit lines. Im sure they will be tho because Telkom is busy trialling 8mbit and 12mbit lines from what I heard from an employee about an hour ago.
Refuse to say anything about I-Wurst.

They are indeed doing that at the moment - an internal test for now. But we can forget about Neotel Lines for a few years. LLU needs to be completed first.

What did you hear was 100 days away? "Neotel ADSL"? or "Neotel Consumer Products"?

100 working days , or more precise 100 Telkom working days and we know that this means about 5 years !!!

Neotel is digging up the road in Parktown North near Rosebank..saw them yesterday for the first time
Out of curiosity, do Neotel people wear bright orange jailbait uniforms (a candid camera shot would be nice)?
