3g or Edge not working after iOS 4 update. Wifi works.

I updated 3 different iPhone 3Gs and one of them can not access anything over 3g or edge. If I flip on the wifi, I can access the internet. I also performed a reset and erase all settings and content, and still no luck.

Has anyone else seen this yet??

Thanks

MacBook, iOS 4

I have the same problem. Here is what I have found. If I reset network settings it doesn't help, if I reset all content and settings it doesn't help, if I restore the phone it fixes the problem BUT I can not restore my back up without reintroducing the problem. As soon as I restore the backup it's broken until I restore it again. I could set it up as a new phone but then I would lose all my app data.

When I look in the console log using the "iPhone Configuration Utility" (you can download it for free from apple.com) I see this error when I try to use edge/3g which I believe is related.

turtles-iPhone CommCenter[32] <Notice>: Invalid PDP Context -1 specified

Calls and texts work fine. Just not 3g/edge data or visual voicemail.
