But set your connection to EDGE and keep your internet active by continuously browsing, then call yourself from a different phone. You will notice that sometimes, the call will not go through.
I tried forcing network mode to GSM, started a large download and called a few times from another phone. It worked every time, the data connection got suspended and automatically resumed when the call ended.

If the problem existed on every network and always when there is a active data connection, there would be a lot more people complaining...
