As the title, I have a EDGE capable phone on Orange and can't get EDGE in my
area. Do any of the other networks offer it?

TIA James

O2 must, or the data connections for the iPhones they sell would be
dead slow (instead of just slow).

Both orange and O2 have some EDGE coverage, although coverage is only patchy
from what I gather.

I thought Orange had only upgraded basestations to EDGE in areas where
they had gaps in 3G coverage?

Yes- mostly in urban areas IME, at least on O2. I have it in Manchester
(Tesco, but uses O2)- just as a data point, I have it here at Euston
station at the moment. :)
