yeah, if there was a more standardized way of calling this data I'd have made this a web app. Perhaps that'll be my next project. =)

Thank you for the excellent presentation… and perhaps more importantly (for me at least) a departure point for further reading.

Kathleen and McTim, thanks for the additional sources.

Jon,

This is really amazing work. I've heard of your skill from Ron Nixon, but this just brings it into focus.

if you want truly African data, check out : Research ICT Africa (http://www.researchictafrica.net). They don't have all the countries, but collected through random sampling, nationally representative and being analyzed by African economists. They use household collected data versus ITU's supply side (from operators) data. The data from the survey is in the public domain and available for use by anyone under a Creative Commons ShareAlike NonCommercial licence.
