Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. I refer to the minister’s inaccurately titled ‘WiMAX fact sheet’ in which she claims that the government’s network will be compatible with PCs, cameras, personal music devices and PDAs. Why doesn’t the minister confirm that in fact the opposite is true and that the technology used by her second-rate service is not compatible with these items, and, further, that people will need to pay $300 to buy the necessary adaptor or, alternatively, a new laptop?
