Using the Phone

This chapter explains how to make and receive phone calls, track your calls,
manage your calls and phone numbers more efficiently, and how to customize
the phone functions.

3.1 About Your Phone

Your A701 includes an integrated GSM (Global System for Mobile
Communications) / GPRS (general packet radio service) phone.
The integrated phone in A701 can also be used to connect your A701 to an ISP
or work network so you can browse the Web and read e-mail. You can connect
to the Internet or work network over GPRS, using Cellular Line, or using the
modem specified by your mobile phone service provider.

Before You Start

To use the phone, you need to first set up an account with a GSM/GPRS mobile
phone service provider. The functions available to you depend on the services
offered by your service provider and your type of subscription.
Your service provider will provide you with a SIM (Subscriber Identification
Module) card. This card contains your mobile phone account details, contacts
that can be stored and any additional services to which you have subscribed.
You must install a SIM card before you can make or receive phone calls or use
wireless data services. (For information on installing a SIM card, see "Installing
the SIM Card and Battery" in section 1.2.)
