Hi, does upcoming Smartphone models support EDGE?

*EDGE stands for Enhanced Data Rates for Global Evolution, much faster than GPRS. Smart will be launching it probably by early next year.

hmm...

I don't think EDGE would be much of a big deal. It's only 2.75G. Besides, statistics show that only a bite-sized portion of the cellphone-wielding public is using GPRS as of the moment.

Wait till they finally launch 3G, mobile video-conferencing capability! woohoo!

matagal pa yang 3G na yan, according to smart and globe, they would have to change all their cellsites

kaya kokonti gumagamit ng EDGE kasi wala pang gaanong EDGE capable na phone that is out in the market, only the 6220 and the upcoming 6230.

For one to be able to use EDGE, the handset should be EDGE capable otherwise, you cant use it even if your network supports it

then definitely dapat smartphones should have edge capability, problem is.. nokia units lang naman meron nyan kc pagkakaintindi ko research din ng nokia yan, and nokia din nagpoprovide nung cell sites na nagsusupport.. tama ba? hehe

I am not sure kung di pwedeng iimplement to sa ibang phones besides Nokia pero ang pagkakaalam ko nga, Nokia started this.

For me, I wont need EDGE here in the Phils, it is only a faster GPRS and will be charged the same so wa use din for me. I am satisfied with the speed of our GPRS here (as if I can surf other sites...LOL, i can only surf google and clickthecity wap sites).

Of course, would be handy if all upcoming phones would have this
