What smitty said, 3g should be plenty capable. its not even on 4g on AT&T, and on Tmobiles its running off edge, which is slower than 3g. But i did happen to pick up 815kbps on my iphone from edge, which was faster than a Samsung Vibrant on the ADR plan, that was picking up mid 600s kbps. FWIW it will be more than capable to do everyday task.
