    We bring you a bumper edition of the TalkCentral podcast this week. Your hosts Duncan McLeod and Craig Wilson unpack the launch of Telkom Business Mobile and ask whether the telecommunications company has turned the corner and what a reinvigorated Telkom could mean for the sector.

    We also talk about the new social media network, Qooh.me, started by Mpumalanga-based candidate attorney Vincent Mabuza, delve into Amazon.com’s new call centre facility in Cape Town and look at Cell C’s defeat over its fight to use the term “4Gs”.

    Also in this week’s show, your hosts talk about Vodacom and MTN launching application stores and ruminate on Steve Jobs’s decision to step down as CEO of Apple.
