It's the only sport you can watch where your guy can lose and not really lose.
@brix25, did you get the name from liking the old brick style phone's?
(@Rhino8 I know that he got the name from a soccer player, but it's quite ironic that he enjoy's all the old bricks...

If mtn and virgin get 2geta, it cud mean reduced rates. Voda got da ability to drop call and sms rates, they just dnt need to.
If they slash costs wiv 50% and the consumer make the same minutes worth of calls and send the same amt of sms, they wil still make a 100+ % profit.

FYI
3G and gprs use data my friend.... so I dont think they can make gprs differ from 3G.... The main reason GPRS is cheaper is because 3G was launched... |
