(E)GPRS
GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) is a network service that allows mobile 
phones to be used for sending and receiving data over an Internet Protocol (IP) -
based network. GPRS is a data bearer that enables wireless access to data 
networks such as the Internet.
EGPRS (Enhanced GPRS), also known as EDGE (Enhanced Data Rates for Global 
Evolution) is similar to GPRS. EDGE is a radio interface modulation technique 
which increases GRPS data rates. For more information on availability of EGPRS 
and data transfer speed, contact your network operator or service provider.
The applications that may use (E)GPRS are MMS, chat and SMS messaging (SMS, 
Short Message Service), browsing sessions,  e-mail, remote SyncML, Java 
application downloading and the PC dial-up (for example, Internet and e-mail).
Before you can use (E)GPRS technology:
• Contact your network operator or service provider for availability and 
subscription to the (E)GPRS service.
• Save the (E)GPRS settings for each of the applications used over (E)GPRS.
For information on pricing, contact your network operator or service provider.
Note that when you have selected GPRS as a data bearer, the phone uses EGPRS 
instead of GPRS if this is available in the network. You cannot select between 
EGPRS and GPRS but for some applications you may be able to select either GPRS 
or 
GSM data
 (CSD, Circuit Switched Data).
