Packet data (general packet radio service, GPRS)
Packet data, or General Packet Radio 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. Because
GPRS uses the network efficiently, it allows for quick
data connection set up and fast data transmission
speeds.
Minimum settings needed to make a packet data
connection
You need to subscribe to the GPRS service. For
availability and subscription to GPRS, contact your
network operator or service provider.

Pricing for packet data and applications
Both the active GPRS connection and the applications
used over GPRS require fees, for example, using
services, sending and receiving data, and text
messages. For more detailed information on fees,
contact your network operator or service provider.
