    Woo! Hopefully this will keep up once all those iPhones debut tomorrow! This would be a great way to fix the most oft-given complaint about the iPhone! It may not be 3G quality, but if EDGE doubles or triples in speed, that would be more than enough for simple browsing. Great news!

    Verizon needs simultaneous data and voice, then get back with us !!!
    You know times have changed, when the iPhone isn't the top dog anymore.

    Using bandsel.exe on my Blackjack (to force it to EDGE-only, or 3G only) I ran two tests (Northern Virginia, just outside DC):

    EDGE - 196kbps
    3G - 684kbps


    If AT&T could deliver 200kbps speeds constantly on EDGE, I'm more than happy with that for now.

    EDIT: Interesting, according to the Gizmodo link -- 200kbps seems to be the theoretical max for EDGE (even though the technical spec goes to 384kbps) so if they just threw the switch and got tons of extra bandwidth for us, I'm going to be quite a happy camper tomorrow!

    Last time I tested was a few months ago, 34 miles from my current location, but still in the PHL market (closer to the city.)

    I got between 93 and 117.

    Not bad? It's pretty spec-freaking-tacular, if you ask me!

    The mathematical maximum for EDGE is 384kbps (http://whatis.techtarget.com/definit...214198,00.html) so if they're hitting an actual of 290kbps? Pretty amazing (especially since Gizmodo seems to think that 200kbps is a good real-world average).

    Very, very happy with this change!
