My vodacom GPRS is just fine (for a gprs connection) off course if one compares it to MTN's lightning fast EDGE then its as a snail indeed.But then you always can move to a big city and buy a 3g handset and the speeds are comparable.(If you intend moving to PE just make sure you are close/within a few km of the tower).Greetings from Jeffreysbay.Mario :-)

@bradboy: Does Vodafone have different GPRS settings to that of Vodacom? A colleague I met last night was apparently trialing MTN's new 3G data card on his laptop before they started rolling out the service next month.

Hi Brix, have you heard anything about the vodacom freak Tahir again, I was going throught the archive and saw that he was bashing Mtn because he owned a vodacom shop?

@786KBR: I'll try to post on prodigits...might be a problem on their side.
@GmQuint: Tahir is lurking around here and he'll pop up soon enough to make another sales pitch to all of us saying we're doomed for not buying into Vodafone Live[:-)]

Hi Rhino

MTN has GPRS+ which reaches speeds of up to 80kbs, if you have GPRS automatically you pick up GPRS+ at certain base stations.
