If you would like to do some homework on South Africa's cellular networks I would suggest browsing the site mybroadband.co.za/
The 1.9Ghz tri-band phones will work in South Africa even though the 1.9 Ghz band is currently unused as far as I know.
They have recently introduced what they call '4g' in South Africa but it doesn't actually come close to conforming to the 4g international standards. It's actually 21 Mbps HSPA+ (I'm not sure how they can mistake this for the 100 Mbps 4g standard). There were mutterings that CellC was maybe going to use this higher band for this service but it's still early days yet.
