UMTS never made it here, infact it goes like gsm, gprs, edge, and 3g here. There is also cdma2000 or cdma1x which is pathetic.

Not yet whizzkid...i think your dreaming! 
3G/UMTS has yet to mature so it will be about 2years until we see the next major shift.

EDGE is probably best considered 2.75G.
4G is unlikely to be avilable for between five and seven years yet, even then it is almost certain to be available in Japan and South Korea before anywhere else.

EDGE should be able to give speeds of upto 384 kbps. But i really dunno how much it gives in actual working.
