In this case, however, I think it's premature. There's simply too many EDGE users out there and too little 3G coverage for them to start phasing EDGE out. I understand that if they migrate more users to the 3G network, they can further deploy it, but as Karl said, "...there's still a lot of traditional 2G/EDGE customers under long-term contract out there (including first gen iPhone, RAZR and Blackberry users)..."
