Forget Tangering,wait for Orange - they are about to launch a new product bundle for voice and data...

I thought an orange is bigger and more nutritious than a tangerine...something tells me these(tangerine)guys are not serious

@KulaRaha - a believe an announcement to that effect might be imminent - both voice (to TKL) and data unlimited for abt 3k pm if I am not wrong...

Djinn,any idea what speed Orange is on now? If they go unlimited,it will probably halve,so I can make an estimate.

@KulaRaha - Orange currently has a number of offerings that include data - 1) Telkom Wireless (CDMA) where you can connect as dial up and pay per minute 2) Orange 3G (fast) - get the device (like suffericoms modem) at abt 3999 3) Orange Internet everywhere (the typical GSM/GPRS based modem) at abt (not sure now) 4) LiveBox (ADSL) - you need to have a fixed COPPER line to use this - this option gives TRUE broadband as the device will allow that old copper line to give you both voice and data simultaneously i.e. you can be talking on the same phone while downloading on one screen,streaming media on another,checking email,etc.


i think pay them a visit and see what they have...

Getting back to Tangerine,when I first called no one was rude...I guess they are quite new in the market but seem serious...wasnt sure about their service,but from what i have experienced they wont sell you what you dont need or what they can't deliver. Im with them and quite happy. Neighbour recommended them...

KulaRaha,am on a package for 512kbps at 6500 a month,and its pretty stable. I like the speed cos I am always on this site! They told me if we get two more neighbours they will reduce my bill cos we will be sharing. You have called them already?

@Kularaha,just to clarify from my last post,they said that if we got two other subscibers we would be sharing equipment only,not bandwith,so I would still get my guaranteed speed...yay!!

@ Vituvingi,I found them quite affordable considering the speed and stability as opposed to paying less for something you dont get i.e. Safaricom... at the end of the day I'd suggest you try it yourself lol....

@mizznai - How do I get a sample? With safcon... I get a choice to try before I buy at the stores as well as buying the minimum package... which I did...

Tangerine update:

Have been trying to get them to come do a site survey since Wednesday last week.

No joy yet.

Im telling you,these ISPs just dont want the business,they dont want change,nothing!!

Where is our internet saviour?

@mizznai,kindly tell me where are they located or how to contact them? I am unable to access their website.

Things may come to those who wait,but only what’s left behind by those that hustle.
