I have 3g on my cellphone, (Vanderbijlpark). And i got no reception for it in my house but when i drive to Vereeniging I have it the whole day with a full signal.

Sasolburg has normal GPRS with 4 time slots enabled. I work in Sasolburg. The GPRS speed is not too bad. I get 80kbps download speeds most of the time and good 50kbps+ throughput on browsing.

I use the service on a daily basis.

In Vanderbijlpark all the Vodacom BTS are 3G enabled except for Riverside (should be active very soon) and Eligwa Park. I use the CBD BTS with good HSDPA speed even at 4 km from the BTS with 1 bar 3G signal.

Sasolburg is the "weeskind" of Vodacom
There is EDGE in Parys and most of the northern Freestate and the EDGE coverage comes to within 20 km of Sasolburg. There is 3G in Vaalpark, just across the river but only GPRS in Sasolburg. I know of a couple of datacard users that would love 3G or atleast EDGE in Sasolburg. Hint, Hint at Vodacom3G.

Any specific reason you're after this info.

I contacted Vodacom and asked when we will have 3G and they asked me where exactly do i live and which transmitter i'm using so they can tend to the problem
