Telkom says it will be ready for 2010

ICT readiness for 2010 at an advanced state, says Telkom

 

[schurtek]

Ah yes... the Telkom BS? But obviously the 8-12Mbps DSL requirement for IPTV is not applicable here in South Africa?

Telkom is always ready to receive massive injections of cash! They will jump through hoops for cash. They will do backflips for cash. They are not so great on doing things out of goodwill or for the customer's benefit though.

Telkom says it will be ready for 2010

Only for the few and priviledged. The rest will be shoved to hell as usual. I hope by then I will not see TELKOM in any adverts let alone on my bills!

 

[Smooth Criminal]

They're not even ready for 2000 :/

Who want's to bet me they will implement Caps on Broadcasting?..

The telecommunications solution that has been defined and refined by Telkom provides for 99.99% availability with no single point of failure. Any downtime – for maintenance purposes, for example – will be planned and, therefore, should not occur during a live broadcast.

So, the seacom cable is not actually a single point of failure?
Does this mean that they (teklom) have been promised some space on the new vapor undersea cable?

This will make possible the early detection of faults or intrusions. In fact, the security of our network is world-class.

How convenient, World Class security but 3rd world special data prices.


But hey, only Teklom or Vodacom or MTN could actually pull this one off. I wonder if the other 2 got a chance to make a proposal.

LOL

always wondered why Ivy might exist 2010 - how can you have ATNS with a monopoly dominant market - OMG what is that stuff they are going to throw into the fan

Of course, it is total possible to build a system that has no SINGLE point of failure, as long as you include MANY points of failure...

Yeah but you forgot to mention the costs are galactic.

 

[Ju99l3r]

Since our network is a messed one, we’re striving to ensure that all 11 World Cup venues will be ready.

fixed it

 

[capetownguy]

11 venues?

 

[waynegohl]

oh yes they will have plenty money too by then as they charge something like R10 odd interest for a one day late payment on your account.
