    TalkCentral: Ep 182 – ‘Drones in a cage’

    [dropcap]O[/dropcap]n TalkCentral this week, Duncan McLeod is joined by Sun Circle Group MD Simon Robinson to chat about the upcoming Mediatech Africa show at the Dome, plus, of course, all the week’s technology news.

    In the podcast, Simon and Duncan discuss Icasa suspending its CEO and Samsung reporting its biggest quarterly operating profit on record.

    Also this week, .africa domains go to “general availability” (but they’re still not cheap) and Vumatel to offer 200Mbit/s home fibre.

    Listen to the podcast to find out who’s been named winner and loser of the week.

    Duncan doesn’t have a pick this week, but Simon has chosen BlackTrax real-time tracking.

    Show regular Regardt van der Berg is travelling this week.
