Answer:
EDGE is an acronym for Enhanced Data GSM Environment
An improved wireless technology over GSM
A 2nd generation cell phone technology
EDGE is used for wireless data transfer via mobile phone connection
Data transfer rates up to 4 times more than GSM networks
With the advent of Blackberry and iPhone, faster data transfer is sought
Using more sophisticated coding, usually without high end hardware, wireless carrier’s base stations are supported for data transfer speeds up to 384 KBPS
EDGE is an alternative to replacing wireless technology, such as GPRS
EDGE will eventually be replaced by 3G technology such as WCDMA.
