Most of the better interviews are podcast and available a few hours later on 702. I was waiting to hear it too but the office couldn't wait.

Congrats SEACOM team, here's to a new age in South Africa broadband.

The wait is finally over, and i'm looking forward to any change -more is better

Congrats Seacom! MMM i wonder how much true broadband will cost....

 

[WiT8litZ]

Well done indeed, sitting in anticipation for the next moves

 

[Alchemist]

Congrats Seacom!!!

Even in the face of adversity that is the South African telecoms red tape, you still stuck to it and managed to pull through. Well done!

Let there be light .
Cant find the switch Yet

 

[Shred]

well done to seacom, big round of applause for making the deadline and doing it in fine style.

If only we reap some benefit of this cable.

Wake me when the headline reads "reduction of 50% or more on ADSL"

We have already had a 25% one yesterday, so we should be half way there right?

 

[Shred]

I really hope Neotel will offer faster speeds than 2.4Mbps now.

They can't even offer 1mbps actual speed, so it is unlikely

 

[Zyzzyva]

I just lit a candle in honour of this auspicious tube of light.

May our curry now burn hotter!!

Seems to be a non-event in the South African press.

I can only find the following articles from Kenya & Tanzania:
