Dear Colleagues,
A quick set of numbers about a specific situation with regard to VSAT
connectivity:
As of September 2004, secondary schools in Uganda were able to purchase
new KU-band VSAT terminals for US $2800 from the Ugandan offices of
AFSAT.
Monthly connection costs under volume-based
and their countries a gross disservice. An unnecessary disservice. This
situation must be changed, and it can be changed -- in part because
schools often provide the greatest access to computer and Internet
access in a given community.
Regards to all,
