    As always, your TalkCentral hosts Duncan McLeod and Craig Wilson dive into the big technology stories of recent days.

    In the show this week, we talk about MTN’s financial results and their admission that they were too slow in reacting to the price war in South Africa; the R400m project to deliver tablet computers to Gauteng schools; free Wi-Fi for residents of Pretoria; and the bid to relaunch Capital Radio 604.

    Also this week, we look at Huawei new super-slim Ascend P6 smartphone.

    Tune in to hear who makes the grade as winner and loser of the week.

    Duncan’s pick this week is the Omega Rom Series for Samsung Galaxy S devices, while Craig has picked Tales of Us for iPhone.

    Stream this week’s show:
