SA - last in Africa?

The good people at Antitrust.co.za have made a video comparing the cost of an ADSL connection in SA and in Mozambique. Watch and weep (unless you are in Maputo, where there are beaches and prawns as well when you get tired of the Internet). The Gizmo Project now offers free phone calls to landlines and cellphones (somewhat complicated conditions apply!) in Malawi and to landlines in Zambia - the only African countries I spotted where the service is available. Guess who has a more liberal telecoms policy than SA...

BTW, Zimbabwean dissidents (mentioned below), NIA (I get the impression from their website that my secrets are safe) leaks and other characters should grab Scatterchat for some secure comms.
