    12 Mb/s is what the rest of the world is on, it's basically ADSL 2/2+ network they're testing out which will be slightly more expensive in the beginning, yet will drop down. But if the 4Mb/s people get an upgrade for free...

    Actually, we've had quite a nice experience from them...however, I heard there were plans in the works to allow free/low rate switching of data between all of SA's networks, so that overloaded ones could go onto less used ones, etc.

    Yeah, they probably do. I know you pay like $50 a month and you get 4Mb/s uncapped, so I'm not to sure what the pricing is for 12Mb/s uncapped, but I have talked to ppl in IRC who had 12Mb/s uncapped.
