Africa leaped the landline phone stage through mobile. That's cash transfer services are making a lot of money (M-Pesa) because everybody has a cell phone in a continent of 1.2 billlion. So any type of technological innovation tied to the daily needs of Africans will be profitable for its innovators. I just wish that entrepreneurs from the continent would be the ultimate beneficiaries.
I want the infrastructure and fiber optics to be set up though. That would be a game changer just thinking about the educational potential of young people having access to courses from all the great universities of the world available for them on the internet.
