the launch is readily welcome, but there is already talk by some of the service providers that costs for connectivity may only drop by 20% and over a period of time, this is what readily discourages us in Africa. I have a post on it at :http://siku-moja.blogspot.com/2009/07/seacom-under-sea-fibre-optic-cable.html
At least the recent announcement by Kenya Data Networks(KDN) that they will reduce costs by upto 90% is very welcome. Maybe even trigger a price war.
