This thing doesn't have any of those, save for the 802.11g wifi.

In the current market a Windows Mobile device lacking at least EDGE is going to drastically reduce it's functionality. I can understand many people don't use the data, and the wifi would be fine for them, but data consumption on mobile devices is becoming more and more common. I think releasing a new device that doesn't cater to that is going to hurt sales. -------------------- Phone: Sprint Touch Pro

Honestly on my smartflip box it doesn't say anything about EDGE (but has it), it simply states GPRS Class 10 -------------------- Eric Jones Editor / Moderator Mobile Gadget News Staff Sergeant United States Marine Corps, Infantry Currently using an iPhone My Gadget History : ~~AT&T Tilt~~, ~~Cingular 3125~~, ~~i-Mate Smartflip~~, ~~G-Sat BT359W GPS~~, ~~Parrot Rhythm n'Blue BT Car Stereo~~, ~~Logitech Mobile Traveller~~, & ~~ThinkOutside BT Keyboard~~

It looks like Class 10 speeds is the standard GPRS speed of around 50kbps download. -------------------- Phone: Sprint Touch Pro
