Most modern phones support different network; the standard is GSM, although the possible variant of UMTS. The appearance of the letter E indicates that the access point is open for your machine, but not necessarily using EGPRS network for data transmission. Figure out what exactly is specified in the field "access Point" in the phone settings: value WAP GPRS or Internet GPRS.nw implies the use of this network to transfer information. In this case, the letter E indicates only the potential use of the EGPRS network.

Apple does not disable data service GPRS/Edge explicitly, although in terms of roaming, for example, this feature may prove to be too expensive.
