EDGE: Moscow Ezhegrafiya

Introduction of new technology so would gravely proceeded calmly, if MegaFon-Moscow is not stir ezho ... in a sense a hornets' nest for its publication of the Plan, with specific areas and address. And now respectable uncle with smartphones at the ready prey on Moscow keen urchins. A happy owners of Motorola watching with interest the transformation of the letter G (GPRS) into a treasured icon E (EDGE) on the display.

Mobile-Review has made its modest contribution to this technological ezhiotazh and we will continue to closely monitor developments. And witnesses invite all interested readers - probably all announced EDGE-zones, there a couple of curious customers to "correct" technique in his pockets. One can only sympathize with MegaFon, who recklessly put on public display schedule ezhevizatsii Moscow and Moscow region, and now, willy-nilly will have to fulfill the promise.

An updated list of appearances and addresses

Below - straight from the tin plate Moscow streets and areas near Moscow, where the assurances of MegaFon-Moscow now has caught EDGE. So far everything seems to go according to plan, the base stations with support for EDGE on August 1st run 75 pieces. Compared with more than 1300 the total number of RBCs in the Moscow region figure is 75 quite impressive but not the end of the year. Let's see whether the EDGE-enabled support for the promised 500 BC. Over the past two weeks, there was not just an extension of EDGE-geography, in that time managed to tidy up the documentation on the site. Now the growth of populations of hedgehogs can see right into their nest.

Unfortunately, Beeline, in this sense behaves in a more secretive. Besides the already known fact EDGE-coating the center of Moscow (inside the Garden Ring), especially nothing to add. According to official figures Bi-EDGE appeared in the MSU Yakimanka and the area between Yaroslavl and Leningrad highway. Some Intelligence augur well for the emergence of EDGE in the Frunze-Sport. In the forums have met the approval of the gradual extension of coverage beyond the Garden Ring, but is guaranteed to separate the real from the desired is not possible.

Hedgehog - not a snail, but not a cheetah

As we have already mentioned, the actual 14-16 kilobytes per second can be considered good luck and a very good result, figures 10.12 KB / s we call the average good. We have to clarify: quite often the hedgehog runs at a speed of about 9 kb / s, which is not even twice as fast as a good dialup. However, so far frustrated early, not everything is ready and configured. In other regions of Russia in a relatively free EDGE networks works much quicker and smarter. We regularly ask about the free trial use EDGE, such was not and will not for obvious reasons. Indeed, the apparatus or clings to the EDGE-BS and transmits data much faster, either in the absence of EDGE all going through the familiar channels of GPRS.Ie from the user is no "test" is not happening. In addition, separate traffic from the EDGE-GPRS-traffic technically impossible.
