The rise of 3G – (ITU 2010 World ICT facts and figures)

We just thought we would post here an ITU depiction of 3G connectivity world over from a report titled “The World in 2010, ICT facts and figures“. We were quite struck with how Zimbabwe compares to the majority of African countries.

Of course in 2010, Econet went on to launch 3G on it’s network and the other operators are working on similar offerings. Whether or not we’re getting true 3G speeds is of course another issue.

Please note that the figures are based on ITU World Telecommunication/ICT Indicators database and the 2010 figure is just an estimate.
