I don't see why anyone would say EDGE doesn't matter especially when there are soooooo many huge advantages over EDGE that are not related to transfer speed. You can have HSPDA throttled down to EDGE speeds, but it would still give you a HUGE advantage, and still matter.
Telenav continues working. it doesnt update the map past its stored point, but it stores the mapped route before hand. i get telenav talking in my ear all the time when on a call. EDGE works just fine for this.
