One important factor contributing to the much-lamented "digital divide"  - in this case, between poor and rich countries - is the cost of bandwidth.

How enormous the differences are becomes palpable when comparing what people have to pay for one gigabyte of data transfer. In the US, it's roughly 20 dollars. In Africa, on average, it's 90 (!) times that - 1800 US$.

This is what spiegel.de reports - unfortunately without naming much of a source, so consider the figures with caution.
