    EDGE should be available now
    HSDPA will be available early next year (by market)

    Some RAZRs only have GPRS - most of the early ones. Mine (from late 2005) is GPRS only. There is EDGE in many areas of Lancaster and the surrounding towns. I'll try and check.

    I dont think that T-Mobileicon will market its EDGE service too much. T-mo will prolly continue to market myFaves more than data b/c they're still behind the game when it comes to data.

    no crap they are...........but i would think that if they want to get ahead they should market something......like i said.my friend got an insert advertising some sort of Video service from T-Mobileicon..............why wouldnt they market this to the general public?

    HSDPA stands for High Speed Downlink Packet Access, which is a version of UMTS (WCDMA) or the GSM based variety of 3G.

    so usually when someone refers to UMTS they are referring to it like UMTS/HSDPA
