from the latest feed i got Zain will be running maybe by the end of the year specifically may be by the mid of January.
But why the rush to expect the best there has to be a lot of patience to achieve all this any way to tell the truth from our brothers in Nigeria i think Zain is not so perfect a service provider yet so dont raise your hopes that hight yet

well...now that they've started let's see what wonderful world they have for us

they charge GHc 0.12/min to all networks at peak time and 0.01/min to all network offpeak(after 10pm).

dude, that's cheaper than Kasapa! a wonderful world indeed!

i wonder why people say they don't get 3G reception because i do. i have made video calls and i have browsed on 3.5G.

check your handset's settings or may be the location you're in does not have 3G coverage yet

i live @Dansoman. and get 3G reception all the way from Legon through Circle to Dansoman. for some areas reception is low.

check your network settings to make sure its on 3G. dual mode usually defaults to GSM until there's no GSM signal.

i've also realised Sony Ericssons are stubborn with 3G. i use a nokia(N95). For most Sony Ericssons you can't choose '3G only' but i can do that on my nokia.
