GPRS and EDGE extend GSM system capabilities to support high-speed
packet data services. Therefore, they enable GSM operators to offer
services such as Internet access and video calls without changing core
infrastructure equipment.

The challenge for GSM carriers is whether to invest in GPRS and EDGE,
which may give time-to-market advantages, W-CDMA or both.

“W-CDMA provides large pipes, but the path is through GPRS/EDGE,”
said Bob Brown, GSM Alliance executive director. “GPRS and EDGE,
although not as fast, will give consumers the image of 3G and potentially
be sufficient to give the subscriber enough of a wow.”

A Band-Aid, imhi.
