Quite an opportunity for Kampala. I like the fact that Google claims to "Avoid unnecessary duplication, but create synergy by working with other operators". My only problem is, since this capacity is being sold to existing ISPs, the end user might not see that much fancied affordable broadband. And that thing called Capital Flight! I wish Kampala could build it's own fiber network. But better half a loaf than no bread On 26/11/2013, McTim <dogwallah@gmail.com> wrote:
