By CONSTANT MUNDAMore by this AuthorSafaricom has cut mobile data charges for its Internet-enabled digital television decoders in a bid to beat off competition in the home Internet space. The cut of up to 53 per cent in mobile broadband prices under two new bundles is also seen as a strategy to grow sales of repackaged Android-powered digital TV decoders. “The new Easy bundles have been designed with the needs of the modern Kenyan family in mind,” Safaricom’s director for strategy and a co-acting chief executive Joseph Ogutu said in a statement. The firm said the new bundles for its home internet customers were an alternative to fixed Safaricom home fibre service. Safaricom charges Sh500 for 1GB Internet bundle, Sh1,000 for 3GB, Sh2,000 for 7.5GB and Sh3,000 for 12GB.
