I dont know about EDGE data cards..but m using mob tht has edge.
The speeds are pretty descent between 10-15KBps. You will get good speeds in the morning.
I can download a 7mb file in less than 10mins using d/l software. Its not that bad after all.

SE has two EDGE enabled PC cards. GC89 has EDGE and WLAN and supports data rate upto 54 kbps for WLAN and upto 85.6 kbps for GPRS. GC85 has EDGE and supports upto 247.4 kbps for EDGE. Both cards are Tri-band and support SMS. Actual network speed may depend on service provider.
