"What does EDGE mean?"

From , former About.com Guide

Definition: EDGE is a technology promoted by Ericsson for high speed data transfer over existing GSM networks, without the need to install new equipment -- a software upgrade is sufficient. A network converted to EDGE will allow speeds of up to 384 Kbps or higher, which is 6 times more than what can be reached with an ordinary land line modem.

Alternate Spellings: EDGE stands for &Enhanced Data GSM Environment&
