it will work...but be prepared to wait while things load/buffer and you might get the occassional stutter while streaming. (i.e. Radio)
On 2g (Edge), i average 70-90kbps, and on 3G (HSDPA), i average 2000-3000kbps (on Rogers)
On a positive note, you get way better battery on 2G

Yes, it's good enough for e-mails.

If you use windows live messenger or push mail, there's other things to consider. I force my Samsung Epix to use the Edge connection rather than 3G. Push mail and messenger need a constant connection and 3G just sucks the life out of the battery.
