EDGE is it even real?
Has anyone else compared the speed of a so called EDGE phone to a non EDGE phone in terms of MEdia net service? I have had faster wap connections on a v220 than a v551. You can do the same test on a Treo 600 vs a 650, the 600 seems to load just as fast even though it is not EDGE. What gives? Anyone else notice the speed not being there? I think if they are going to raise the price of all these data services then the speed should better on the handsets. Thought? 😕

I hear you! I even thought I didnt have EDGE in my market. To my surprise, I do... My V551 is like a lazy turtle, even to check my minutes it takes a while. Oh! and sometimes it gives me an error message saying netrwork unavailable. WTF?

yes EDGE does exist, i can press the button to connect on my 6820 and my E715 at the exact same time and the 6820 will load at least 3-5 seconds faster

diu WTF do you expect? the connection to be faster then you can think about pressing the button? 🙄

what class edge are those phones? cause if there not very high then they prolly wont be that fast. i have the 6230 and i can say there is a big difference. when i sent pics with my v400 it took almost a minute to send while my 6230 sends it in 20 secs
