Some 3G USB modems do work with the EE and PE (at least with Dingo, apparently no longer with Ermine). A key was to remove the PIN on the modem's SIM card so that the eDGe could use the modem. Perhaps this is what you saw.

But, as the eDGes don't have 3G circuitry inside, getting a 3G connection simply with a SIM card would be rather magical.
