3G (without extensions) is at maximum 384kbit/s (48kbyte/s).
7.2Mbit/s is HSDPA-Category 8.
I do only pay for Category 8 and if I have a good signal I get between 700 and 800kbyte/s.

In my experience, the APN you select (most folks seem to select between epc and internet2) does not really make a huge difference in speed (though ymmv)
The fastest speed I have ever seen on my n900 utilizing the T-mobile USA network was about 3Mbps down. Like I said, the speeds you get are highly variable depending on the coverage in your area. Finally 3Mbps is slower than hyped, but when I get those speeds, it is certainly fast enough for me to forgo paying for wireless when I am on the road...
