Thanks for reminding me of this.You're right. 3G with the sim cards is becoming very wide spread in most African countries. However it's not very reliable.

The worst is not when it's down, but when it's up but so slow that connections freeze. Because you end up waiting, trying and reloading pages, just wasting time.
