I know there is a Skype thread somewhere but I'm buggered if I can find it at the moment.

Hallucienate - do you think this is going to be the case with Telkom - have you heard any rumblings?

I don't think Telkom are cross subsidising anything, but I doubt that'll stop them from using this as an excuse to charge more. With their annual increase this month the did however cut the costs of international calls but still hike up the local call costs. Bastards.

" Telkom is set to benefit handsomely in the short term ..."

Short term being the big point, I think. If what is going on in Europe is anything to go by. Interesting times.
