GPRS General packet radio
service. GPRS enables
wireless access for mobile
phones to data networks
(network service). GPRS
uses packet data
technology where
information is sent in short
bursts of data over the
mobile network. The
benefit of sending data in
packets is that the network
is occupied only when
sending or receiving data.
As GPRS uses the network
efficiently, it allows for
quick data connection setup
and fast data transmission
speeds.
You must subscribe to the
GPRS service. For availability
and subscription to GPRS,
contact your service
provider.
During a voice call, you
cannot establish a GPRS
connection, and any
existing GPRS connection is
put on hold unless the
network supports dual
transfer mode.
