the iphone runs on at&t, which is called EDGE (it is considered 2.5G) and has a theoretical data transfer limit of 236.8 kbit/s. in practice, most
people get much less - more like 100kbit/s.
the next generation of cellular data transfer technology is called 3G, and has a theoretical speed limit of 14.4Mbit/s. again, no one will actually
get that speed, but it will be much faster than edge.
3G is widely available from other networks, but at&t is just now rolling theirs out.
If I fail math, there goes my chance at a good job and a happy life full of hard work.

no, at&t has a multi-year exclusive on the iphone in the US.
3G is not a proprietary format, but the ability to offer it to subscribers is dependent on the carrier having the hardware (read:towers) in place to
offer it. the 3G iphone is widely expected because:
- at&t recently announced a significant rollout of the service nationwide this spring
- the company that makes the 3g chips for the iphone recently announced smaller, less-power-hungry version. (apple said it launched the iphone
without 3g because the large chip would effect design and shorten battery life).
If I fail math, there goes my chance at a good job and a happy life full of hard work.

it's not 'extra' per se, as all rate plans include however many minutes PLUS unlimited email & web data.
