E, which stands for EDGE, is also "2G".

It's edgier 2G for an edgier generation.

Yes, but GPRS is also 2g, but almost half the speed of edge.

How dare you "um, akhtually" me on my "um, akhtually"?!

Yeah but its faster than just regular 2g. You can load not ridiculously sized images on edge. On 2g? Enjoy your wait.

Actually no, 2G GPRS is 256 Kbps, while 2.5G EDGE is 384 Kbps.
