It seems that CAK is trying to do the right thing but I can't tell if they have weak lawyers or if the court is just confused or if the rights-holders of the analog spectrum really are being violated.

But while we wait, other countries in the region are moving forward.  The big problem is that LTE deployment (and digital-only terrestrial TV) takes time and the longer we wait for the start, the further away we are from getting meaningful value out of the transition moving ahead.

True that Adam.

Only problem is that the Gava /Regulator folks have gone awfully quiet in recent times..even our ever-ready Wambua of the CCK fame has not said anything since they became CAK :-)

Or perhaps since since we have sued them left, right and center, they are unable to comment on matters before the Bench (it can always be used against you).

 Looks like Rwanda is
 about to launch LTE:

 Any updates on Kenya?  Aside from Burundi, Kenya
 looks set to be the last to launch the service in the East
 African Community.
 The last I heard, the Supreme Court blocked the
 disabling of the analog signals which need to be shut down
 in order to free up spectrum.  In addition, KDF has alot of
 spectrum that they've been holding onto as well.

 I figured somebody on this list would have the
 latest update.
