abukhari,

"I guess they could handle voice if it was done via VoIP, but I don't believe GPRS and EDGE do anything as far as traditional voice-capacity is concerned."

I believe that just the opposite is true. Someone correct me if I am mistaken, but GPRS and EDGE will not change the manner in which voice is handled today. That is, it will not follow the path to native VoIP for quite some time.

Perhaps through the use of gateways it could be made to look thus, for incoming calls, but the providers, from what I am told, are not about to abandon their new voice architectures at this point, after finally getting them put into place.

Which leads me to believe that all native IP add-ons for EDGE and GPRS will be for data only. Corrections welcome.
