[kictanet] Seacom goes live?

[Maliti, Tom]

Dear Walu,
 
It is almost a week since SEACOM went live and there does not seem to be
that much excitement or response despite the many discussions that have
been dedicated to broadband on this list.
 
Your question at the end of your email is still valid. Or is it possible
our varied service providers were not prepared, irrespective of what
they say in public? It seems, however, one service provider was ready:
Safaricom. Their service has been on fiber since Saturday and anyone who
is on their data services has been enjoying the high speeds that have
been talked about for years.
 
Does anyone know of any others?
