Over 230 million folks in the US have EVDO RevA coverage. People are using it over other WISP options because it's more reliable with better latency.

EDGE coverage is pretty wide-spread in the US. Not as fast as EVDO but certainly fast enough for downloading books, reading e-mail, etc. Apple have used it for their iPhone.
I think going with GSM is undoubtedly the correct choice - it makes the device world-wide rather than restricting it to a single-country market.
