EDGE is an innovation on the GPRS technology. GPRS and EDGE are simply the
same concept of mobile internet but the EDGE technology has made many more
improvements. The biggest improvement that consumers are concerned with is
speed.
The EDGE technology offers speeds of 236kbits per second if not
more, while GPRS has speeds of up to 48kbits per second. So Yes, EDGE is better
in the fact that an EDGE device will give you a lot faster data rate. But
beware, some service providers may charge you extra for the EDGE service
