Africa will never....

Africa will never see anything good or decent at those prices. It's a real pity the entire world, including most of the USA couldn't be wired like Japan cheaply, and reliably.

Re: Africa will never....

I think the reason that broadband is so cheap in Japan, Korea, etc. is that there are a lot of people crammed in a relatively small location.

On the other hand, the reason broadband in the US isn't cheaper is the greedy telecoms...

Well, hate to say it, but I think most Americans, reguardless of occupation, are greedy. Myself included I guess.

Perhaps you should say that people in general are greedy, no matter where you are in the world.

Oh now this is funny, its perfectly acceptable to say the US sucks but god forbid someone calls people out on it. Sorry for not spouting the company line.
