I don't get a lot of calls, but it's a nuisance to have to switch to EDGE in mid-call.

Same. All my calls are less than 5 min (usually.. sometimes ill be on the phone for a few hours!) and i have yet to notice this twangy phenomenon or any cal degradation.

in fact, making calls over UMA is always such a pleasure because i have an extremely fast connection (1-10 mB per second upload!)

are you *sure* this isint some sort of network issue (possibly your service provider is filtering / modifying IpSec or VPN traffic?)
