edge is still new and it's competing with 3g so just give it a little while. it's taking off rather quickly here in the U.S. where there is no 3g. of course nobody knows what it is...

I would'nt say competing buddy. EDGE is for all the networks which could not afford/procure a 3G licence. And unfortunately are quite a few around the world.Secondly EDGE is much much cheaper to implement then UMTS (3G) and lastly 3g represents les then 1% of all cell networks. Probably in a few years time that will change.But then again probably not.ATM it looks like most of the users are happy to use a phone just for normal 'talking' with a selected few spearheading the way into video calls which is one of the 3g offerings.Lets wait and see. Is a pity SE is not implementing EDGE.The financial constrains thru which the company is going after the Pxx fiasco surely plays a role.Greetings from SA.Mario

Buddy, Japan is a "test bed" for new products for most of the local and some international companies.The P-series showed promis in the begin with the original release but failed to capitalize on that.Because the developing costs where quite high SE had to price it accordingly, which ment that only a specialized (and fairly small) market bought it ! Also the royalties SE had to pay to Nokia for every sold device played a smaller rolle into its demise.(it uses a form of symbian operating system which is a Nokia development) Althou the SE fans badly want a 'upgrade' so far no official announcements have been made.I personaly liked the P800 and I hope to see a P1000 this year or early next year.One thing is for sure.That marked is strongly dominated by Nokia with their 9xxx line up (and in a lesser extent the 7710)lets wait and see. :-)

backl to topic. it seems foolish for the other brands to neglect EDGE. The platform is sure to
grow, seeing how expensive it is to set up a 3g network.

Hi guess the other brands have realized Nokia basically has the EDGE market under complet control. Resistance is futile ;-)
