A price war on DATA eerrrm  well some claim to have good networks, some know
they have good networks , some are just impostors hiding behind others, So
those who know they have "good" networks naturally will not budge, because
maintaining that GOOD network COSTS REAL MONEY, those who claim to have the
good networks will play the price game but further compounding the problem
of wrong dimensioning and oversubscription the biggest pest in ugandan DATA
business(signal to noise ratio ),  and well the impostors will simply be
impostors...!! :)
