Part of your prediction was that he would not be in power at the end of 2009, which is false. You are being too lenient on yourself by giving yourself full marks for simply predicting that he would be 'weakened'. Other than that, a decent job.

I will tell you though that at $30 for most volume data plans, data isn't exactly cheap even in the US. However, the next price war amongst telcos in Pakistan will be over data rates.
