Telkom tests 4MB triple play

“Several countries are now placing some sort of cap on their Internet connectivity after having left it unmanaged for several years. We have been heavily criticised for doing this from the start, but I think we have been vindicated.”

Bloody seething bollocks! 3GB cap compared to a 50GB cap!
 
Tooooot Toooot - lets all blow our own trumpets, shall we ?

He says the reason for not bundling Internet connectivity with the 4MB offering is because it would interfere with the current 3GB cap placed on it.

This is such total and utter tripe, it doesn't even bare thinking about.

"interfere" - more like hammer the 3GB cap in two hours !

Backwards we go ...

Retards.
 
A truck can pass over the bridge but a mini cant ???

WTF is wrong with telcum???
this is like having a big bridge and blocking mini cars cause the are damaging it
but then at the same time its ok for big trucks to whizz by every second ?? :confused:
So this same pots copper wire i's using now has to be protected from the bad big internet as apparently every byte passing over it causes some sort of damage, but then streaming video and data for triple play can run on it non-stop and cause no problems.... how ****ed up is that :eek:
 
I want to go and work for Telkom where I can talk **** all day too.
Russell Achterberg is in contention for Vapi's old job if he keeps this up.
Shame, what a tosser.

more like 2 minutes you mean.
 
Telkom have lost the final part of the plot!

Its official telkom are beyond **** up! this makes no sense at all. What is the point of monitoring internet usage. Then giving open fiber for other crap. I mean the economy is not based on selling paper view.

economic development needs cheaper calls, web and mail access.

God help us all!
 
O.M.F.

*sigh*

Just when you think telkom cant conjure up more bull****, they come with with this, Although with these IQ levels we are talking about in telkom, one tends to be a bit surprised they didn't decide to just provide the triple play service over 64 clustered ISDN lines :D .

Think about it, it seems to be the latest telkom trend, to just regress into the dialup ages.
 
"vindicated"?? These people give idiots a bad name. News-flash - you're still being criticized.

And several countries? That impresses me.

several(a): (used with count nouns) of an indefinite number more than 2 or 3 but not many
 
“Triple play will work independently of the Internet connection, although both services will be through the same twisted pair copper cable.”

And let me guess ... you'll have to pay another line rental for it? Pricks...

Don't you know that once all the electrons have flowed out of one end the copper is used up. And I thought you wrere educated!
 
If only I could get my hands on those telkom ***** *** *****
 
I'm still trying to figure out what they mean by triple play.

Because, triple play is video, voice and data (or e-phone, e-tv and e-internet)
Triple play is the term for the bundling of a video, voice and data service

But here, we see a new definition...triple play, with only two services...voice and video.

“Triple play will work independently of the Internet connection, although both services will be through the same twisted pair copper cable.”

so, it is double play, working independently of your internet connection (they refer to "both services" in the quote above, hence triple play is NOT viewed as part of your internet connection as per the new definition)

Am I the confused one? or is there something I am missing? Or will it be voice, video, and vaseline...in which case it a better name would be 3v instead of triple-play.
