Africa Ready for Blackberry

After successful introduction of Blackberry in South Africa and Nigeria by MTN and Vodafone, Kenyan carriers i.e Safaricom and Celtel wants to give it a try. In this area where Phone's are the leading gadgets to sell, they will definitely have a great target market.

One of the selling point will be the ability to send and receive email from the phone. There might be other phones out there that can do that but will guarantee you that blackberry will be the choice of many. Nokia and Motorola have been controlling this market but with the international success blackberry has received, competition will not be that high. I don't even think that the carriers need to run all the promotions since the name will sell for its self.

So if your carrier is safaricom, then await the Blackberry 8100 or 8700.

With sub saharan countries being second to china when it comes to new cell phone sign ups, expect blackberry and other phone companies taking African market seriously. This is where the growth rate in terms of new customers has gone beyond most companies expectations.

Jet Numbers Call Forwarding

This is one of the best things that i have seen/tried online. Jet Numbers lets you forward your calls to an international number thus giving you the comfort of calling a local number and your call is answered abroad.

With this, companies that have sales people abroad can actually program their phones such that they can be reached easily without having to pay international and the good thing is that it comes with a portable phone number so they can be giving it out for quick access....

Their free trial is great, i got almost 58 minutes to Kenya, 26 to United Kingdom from the United States. Give them a try. Their web address is www.jetnumbers.com
