@mnxibit - have you done your groundwork? Is a cyber feasible there? See the thing is this - cybers may not really offer good margins anymore eps with bandwidth costs expected to keep dropping over the next 12-18 months. Right now the highest one can charge (outside upmarket locations) is Kshs 1. Your business model would need to have the cyber as a core but NOT the main revenue stream - the honey that attracts the flies - but at the periphery you need to have other offerings with higher margins (i.e. online learning - can you become a recognised e-learning centre for x-college or y-university?). Can you focus on content development? And by that I do not mean website development (every Tom,Dick and Harry does that) - I mean creating animations,articles,learning materials,etc commercially). With a good speed connection a cyber can double as a small BPO doing data entry,etc) and with a REALLY good connection can even offer more advanced services like video editing,animation creation,etc for export).
The plain old cyber that gives people access for yahoo and hotmail is on the wane and offers little revenue. But it can still be sustained by other peripheral activities. Part of the threat has to do with mobile internet (USB Modems,WAP capable handsets) coupled with the influx of affordable laptops and desktops such that it makes more sense to have your PC and internet at home ready for use when needed. Umoja is in an urban area - if you wanted a cyber in a rural area,talk to KDN - the cyber model may still work in outlying areas. KDN have a package for rural areas.

The problem with equality is that we desire that it be with those that have more than us rather that those that have less
