Pro(Asm), among others has mentioned this elusive next phase roll-out. It is true that we need to wait for Sentech to sort out the current grid, issues, and whatnots.

The issue is, I, and I'm sure truck-loads of others (hopefully), whom have been scrounging this forum's halls and lounges since last year, have put on hold the getting of the Telkom product. The basic reasoning was that the uncapped thingymagwhatchie would be worth waiting for.

Lately, only beacuse Sentech is not forthcoming with ANY official information on the roll-out, but continues to create brand awareness through television ads (must be brand awareness, cause there ain't no product I can actually get![:(])they are frustrating the hell out of us (potentially) very loyal puppies.

All we ask/plead is a sign from the heavens, regarding the availability of towers (even those supposed to roll-out in phase I (which is supposed to have covered me)).

I do not want "Soon", or "Next", or even again "?quarter 2004".

The thing is, with rumors about Telkom recapping at 10G, and improving their roll-out/service, I'm really, REALLY seriously considering getting their product.AND after I've made an R1400+ investment in a ADSL modem, I will be a WHOLE lot less persuasive(able) about getting MyWireless later on. Oi. What to do?

You seem to have misunderstood the 10 gig Cap on ADSL but that I'm not going into.
Regarding the Phase II rollout, this we are starting with atm, but you must understand its not just a case of where should we put a Tower and in a week its up.
It takes many weeks of preperations, permissions, designing, enviromental studies etc before actual installation can start and this is ongoing atm.
The current grid will be sorted out within a week or 2 so that wont hinder new installations.
Phase II Towers are being added all the time, 22 which was completed this week and several to follow.

If you want to put a tower in my back garden, I'll be keen [:D]

Just so long as I can hook up directly to it and get 3mbs with 20ms ping times ! [:p]
 
Pro(Asm), I would just like to know if there is any place where we could find out in which regions Sentech plans to deploy towers with the Phase II Roll-out.
 
francoistk, at this point in time, no, only once things are more finalized.
