Chief marketing officer at MTN South Africa, Serame Taukobong says: "We recognised that the Smartphone revolution was sweeping across South Africa, as it has in other parts of the world, and MTN recognised the opportunity, acquiring the most cutting-edge Smartphone systems technology available. Our network is ready and capable to support the requirements needed to support the increased reliance on network stability, bandwidth, line-speed and efficacy of these devices."
"Convergence of communication technology over the past decade has seen a sharp increase in bandwidth demands on networks. Today, mobile technology is about much more than carrying voice," says Taukobong. "New generation Smartphones such as the IPhone 4 encapsulates true convergence with our upgraded network enabling data, video and voice stably and at speed."
The IPhone 4 will be available at selected MTN stores with national availability across more than 250 stores by mid-October.
