Randolph Almost the middle of December. One week and six days to Christmas. Ten days to my 27th birthday. And still no Internet access at home. I’m starting to get very anxious about that little fact, because it’s going to affect my productivity if I’m working from there! I can still use the facilities at the office, even though I’m contracting, but it’s inconvenient.
There’s a company that is launching a wireless Internet solution at the end of January though, which is definitely worth looking at: it costs R849 per month for a 256kbps connection. While this is more expensive than ADSL, and a little slower, it is the same speed both ways, and doesn’t rely on those bastard telephone people who monopolise the industry, so I don’t need a telephone line!
