EGSM 1900 is not the 3g 1900MHZ of Personal Carrier?

As far as I understand. EGSM means "Extended GSM" and is what you see as 2.5g.

Sorry that I post into a thread that is going littlebit off-topic, but...

E-GSM is actually extension to the GSM frequency range, please see e.g.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E-GSM#E-GSM

So it doesn't increase the nominal user data rates but gives operators
more channels to expand their GSM network. AFAIK, "2.5G" usually refers to GSM/EDGE (EGPRS) services: better than 2G (GPRS) but less than 3G.

Best regards,
