Cellphone using Multiple Sim Card

Oh, my God!

I could have been a millionaire, or even billionaire for that matter. If, and only if I have ignored this township mentality (of umbhedo, nempambano). When you have these ideas, many think that you are either "high" or mad.

One time I was suggesting to my friends that our cellphone network companies, Vodacom, Cell C and MTN are just playing with us. Firstly, they rocket call unit prices sky-high. Secondly, they hold the upper hand in our handsets as they are the only one who determines which network your sim will be using. They also supply sim cards that need swim swap constantly.

My solution? A phone that could take a multi sim card, or a phone that would have three slots for all the three sim cards.

Now I read that the Chinese have ignored my South African families and buddies, and went on to invent exactly what I have been thinking 5, 6 or 7 years ago! Click this link to learn more (par 7).

I wonder how many more ideas are out there in the townships and rural areas that are not taken for granted. I know for example of a guy who lives in a village near King William’s Town who is gifted in electricity and electronics. He even managed to break the airwaves one time. Our problem: he is uneducated with a mere grade 6, and seems to be a little bit sick! But, to be honest, he is a genius who could have easily been a physicist, scientist or a professor of some kind.
