WBS WiMax here

Well, that's iBurst down the tubes. They can't seriously be trying to sell 64k "leased lines" in a market where we now have 1Gbps metro ethernet services and plenty of broadband alternatives.

I am genuinely interested in their 64k offering - if the price is something that is market related ie much less than diginet

Best Effort?

"Mr Mtshali added that global experience has shown that ubiquitous, high-speed Internet access has improved the lives of every community where it has been deployed. “The potential of the Internet to change lives for the better is proven and real. Broadband really should be viewed as a basic service, similar to water and electricity,” he said."

"ubiquitous, high-speed Internet access"

Huh?.....

wonder what the rates are going to be like...

Yeah I'm intrigued as well especially for the assured bandwidth option.

Come on do you people not read?

The WiMax Broadband service will be a best effort service offering maximum speed options of 512 kbps and 1024 kbps with capped monthly quotas of 5GB and 10GB.

How do I get hold of this company? I cannot find anything on the web. I want to know if they can give me connectivity in the rural area I live.

You might like to contact Ian Halliday of tradepage. I believe he has VERY close ties with WBS...
