When Telkom changes their pricing model

What happens when Telkom changes their pricing model to "squeeze more blood out of a stone?". A local ISP has announced that they are doing connectivity at similar rates with more bang for your buck.

What is interesting to also note is that Datapro have purchased @lantic's client base of 32000 users for R 45 million. It's approx R 1400/client who is apparently paying R 100/month each which is a big chunk of cash to pay for a subscriber base.

Apparenlty the ISP market is in "land grab" mode so we should be seeing more client bases getting sold from reading the Datapro press release.
