Well, I did some work with regards to streaming videos over GPRS a while ago, and ahven in #openmoko was able to play a streaming video that had a total bit rate of 52kbps with no lag. (H264 at 40 with Vorbis audio at 12, and it looked and sounded better then the normal YouTube mobile streaming too :) I'm pretty sure it can do more too. There is info on the wiki about it, check out the GPRS class info.
