Slacker,

<< The one question I have never really settled in my mind is why Europe is even going to 3G if EDGE provides everything that 3G does except for 2mps in a non-mobile environment >>

The fact of the matter is that the major European carriers (as opposed to the Asians) are asking this question publicly.

<< the European operators will be getting additional spectrum to deploy 3G services on >>

Yes, at GREAT additional cost and with all sorts of issues. They CAN'T emplot 3Gin existing spectrum.

I haven't figured it out either.
