With handsets becoming cheaper,virtuall every kenyan aged 18-90 will own a cellphone,majority of which will have a saf line. Hata chui ana mkwe!

@mlefu, kenyans,morealso the youth and middle aged are known to die for freebies. with club20 of zain,i think majority will identify with this. however,with internet becoming cheaper and faster by the day,safcom may make internet services free. but not in the near future. ama what's you take mwana wa kahii. . . .

Chris, You are very right.....Pricing is the key here!

damn SK.............. why keep one fish in a glass aquarium while you can have all the fish in the ocean?

I read it somewhere where there was a discussion of safaricom's potential for data income/revenue. *Please note that this is NOT the same as 1.5mn unique users with modems but includes those who occasionally use their phones to access the web. **Many users (like myself) use BOTH modem & phone (different SIMs). ***You can buy a corporate router/modem that allows 5+ users. So one SIM but 5+ users. Could they have been included as 5 not 1? **** The 'free' or discounted modem promotion really jacked up the number of modem users. Of course,I have no idea how many are still using their modems. ***** Safaricom says one use every 3 months counts you as an active subscriber. Could the 1.5mn data users include people like me (3 safaricom SIMs)? Greedy when others are fearful,Very fearful when others are greedy - to paraphrase WB
