I have been subscribing to the 1,000Ksh (10$) a month for only 300MB of data. Which could disappear in 1day if I attempted to watch youtube/video on this.  Now for the same price, I will gel 1,500MB i.e. 3times for data sizes.  I think I like this and we are definitely moving in the right direction. 

Qtn however for the Operator is whether this is permanent or after 1mth, we might be told it was  test...and another for the Regulator: How will  you tell if the Operator is (not) is compromising on the speeds (technically: ensure contention ratios are fair and customers dont pay affordable speeds only to get congested - common with traditional fixed internet service providers).

That said, we must agree that these are indeed interesting times to be in Kenya.
