I am moving to south africa and would like to find out what the cheapest and biggest bandwidth internet rates are in south africa. i know that telkom offers an over-priced service, are there any other options (not including wireless servers). what is the fastest and biggest intenet connection you can get and how much does it cost on average per month.

From an article i found:mtn has reduced rates on data contracts and data bundles by up to 20% and mtn customers can now also pay as little as 20c per mb when buying the 1gb data contract or data bundle. in addition to the price reduction, mtn has extended its range of data contracts, adding a 350mb contract to the existing 500mb and 1gb contracts. as part of the 24 month data contract, customers can receive the f@stlink e220 usb mini modem or the f@stlink e620 data card. the f@stlink e220 usb mini modem plays a important role in increasing the accessibility of mtn’s broadband, in that it can be used with desktop and laptop computers. customers using desktop computers at home or in the office can now also connect to the internet using mtn’s data network. customers taking out the extended data 1gb contract before 18 may 2007 will receive an extra 1gb of data for free e month for the duration of the 24-month contract, while customers subscribing to the 1gb data bundle will also receive an extra 1gb of data for three consecutive months from date of activation. with this promotion, customers can pay as little as 20c per mb of data.
