Personally am not moved or shaken by the fact the UTL has decided to come out
and say they have launched hotspots , hotspots have been around for about
2-3years IN UG, this reminds me of a thread someone started here on Publicom
phones and there use of solar power IIRC some didn't know that but thats how
they had been running for a couple of years( correct me if i am wrong , i
don't remember the thread very well) , so this is some what the same
situation, technology being available but not exposed.
So for the security conscience am sure you will enjoy playing around with the
wireless hotspots , i don't doubt UTL's competence... this actually reminds
me of how Nextel dropped there Broadband service designed for business
travellers a.k.a hotspots , hit the market pretty hard i hope we shall see
the same trend in uganda and probably expose the technology more to the
masses. Otherwise a big round of applause ...
