| Pigeon With 4Gb Memory Stick Faster Than BroadBand In South Africa Broadband promised to unite the world with super-fast data delivery - but in South Africa it seems the web is still no faster than a humble pigeon. A Durban IT company pitted an 11-month-old bird armed with a 4GB memory stick against the ADSL service from the country's biggest web firm, Telkom. Winston the pigeon took two hours to carry the data 60 miles - in the same time the ADSL had sent 4% of the data. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/8248056.stm
