@Super G. There may be Edge all over China but I think I prefer 3G. There is a bigger push for 3G.
How does
this look to you?
EDIT: Ericsson is also one of the companies participating. Imagine 100Mbps.

@Super G
It's a shame it isn't conquering core SE markets or we might have seen some SE EDGE handsets by now!

Thats scary
Does that make us all geeks?
It doesn't surprise me at all. The average Joe Public would not know what the hell it was.

I wonder how many know what EDGE is. I would think you are talking less than 0.1%.
I find it hard to believe that statistic, given the vast quantity of advertising from 3, Vodafone and Orange. We may be geeks, but are the general British public blind?!

I wouldn't be surprised if that statistic were true, as I said, most people really couldn't care what standard they are using as long as it works.

These ads just brainwash people with the term "3G". They dont explain what it is. I believe most people have absolutely no clue what 3G is, apart from a funny name in some ads..

I would be very surprised if Joe Bloggs knew what GPRS was let alone WCDMA. It just isn't something people care about; consumers don't care about the operational particulars of their microwave ovens, it's the same principle. People like things that work, end of story. The customer sees the end product; the flashy video calling feature; the fast download speeds, etc he doesn't concern himself with the specifics.
