If you need higher bitrates, implementing header and payload compression
at the SNDCP level in the SGSN is possible.
Also, always keep in mind that while you can offer 7 TS with GPRS/EDGE,
almost no phone has support for a multislot class that allows for 7 TS
in DL. So multiple phones can fill the 7 TS, but it's unlikely one
phone can use all of them.
