  • Superb tech news for Mzansi

    I love that it’s specific to SA but not confined to products available here. The hosts are nerds but not the awkward kind.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

TCS+ | Vox Kiwi: a wireless solution promising a fibre-like experience
Q: Tell me about installation and what kind of hardware is involved?
Installation uses a small roof-mounted flat panel antenna, powered over Ethernet, connected to a router inside the home, with a two- to three-hour process and no need for underground drops, making it a relatively unobtrusive setup.
TCS+ | Vox Kiwi: a wireless solution promising a fibre-like experience
Q: Can you just tell me about the rationale behind bringing Kiwi to market?
The rationale is that traditional microwave is expensive for residential entry; Kiwi provides a more affordable, fiber-like experience by leveraging microwave links with fiber to the towers, extending fiber reach to homes where fiber isn't available, while avoiding the high costs and limitations of full fiber deployment.
Watts & Wheels S1E1 - 'William, Prince of Wheels'
Q: Do you see brand loyalty eroding for Toyota or strengthening?
I think it's strengthening. We measure our retention values very, very closely.
Watts & Wheels S1E1 - 'William, Prince of Wheels'
Q: Are we making progress on this front?
There's a lot more clarity around key issues but how quickly it translates into visible action is uncertain.
Watts & Wheels S1E2: ‘China attacks, BMW digs in, Toyota’s sublime supercar’
Q: What are the key strategies BMW is employing to compete with Chinese manufacturers?
Peter van Binsbergen discussed the importance of a clear strategy on EVs and NEVs to remain competitive.
