Neotel said that while they can not reveal all the details about customer signings and strategic partnerships, they are pleased with their progress and that many discussions are in the final stages of closure.<\/font> <\/p>\n

\u201cThe process of acquiring new customers and expanding services to existing wholesale customers is ongoing, and we are constantly expanding our list of strategic business partners,\u201d Neotel said.<\/font> <\/p>\n

To support their services Neotel <\/a>needs a competitive national and International telecoms network, and the operator is confident of its progress here.<\/font> <\/p>\n

\u201cCompletion of the long distance infrastructure to support these services is well underway. The full suite of enterprises services will be available to Neotel\u2019s first customers in the first quarter of 2007, and initial consumer services for residential and SMME customers will be introduced in limited areas by April 2007,\u201d Neotel said.<\/font> <\/p>\n

Neotel is placing lots of focus on its development of a world class Next Generation Network, and this process is reaching the implementation phase.<\/font> <\/p>\n

\u201cWe are currently in the final stages of our vendor selection process for the phase 1 implementation of our Next Generation Network, leveraging the metro infrastructure procured from Transnet, as well as the long distance network,\u201d said Mala Suriah, spokesperson for Neotel.<\/font> <\/p>\n

Telkom<\/a> is however not resting on its laurels, and Papi Molotsane has recently reiterated that he is sticking to his plans to invest billions of Rands in Telkom\u2019s new generation networks.<\/font> <\/p>\n

Consumers will ultimately be the beneficiaries of these NGN networks, especially customers with their eyes on improvements in the broadband arena.<\/font> <\/p>\n

Many current Telkom customers are eagerly awaiting Neotel\u2019s first retail offerings. These hopeful onlookers are placing a great deal of hope in Telkom\u2019s competitor to shake up the market with world class broadband offerings at affordable rates.<\/font> <\/p>\n
