It's a boneheaded choice. Edge and 3G are not mutually exclusive and they're trying to spin it as if they were. They are not. My Samsung Blackjack happily slums it on the Edge network when 3G is not available in a particular nook or cranny.
I agree. I have a blackjack as well and it does great on the edge network. I don't have 3g here yet, but I can't wait to see how it works on that network.

i'll take my htc 8525 any day vs. the iphone. 8525 feature set and software availability is much more appealing and it has 3g too!

Agreed, I have a VZW XV6700 with wifi and I love my phone, I can do everything the iPhone can do and so much more. And if I really get desperate then I can simply load the iMenu + iContacts + Slide 2 Lock and make my phone look just like the iPhone, I can play every format of music and vids out there. I do have EVDO although I use my wifi more. There are far more third party apps out there that make so much more use of this phone than what the iPhone will ever get to. Do you think I give a crap about 6-8gb of space? I have a 4gb MicroSD now and dont have half of it used. I have more apps on it than I do music. I usually run at 80% battery life at the end of my day. My wifi and bluetooth stay running all day. My CPU is 416mhz and overclocked at 520 but can go as high as 663mhz.

So can someone please tell me why I would want to give up this device that does so much more for an iPhone ?
