GSM/GPRS/EDGE technology is integrated into your HP iPAQ. To send
or receive data over a GSM/GPRS/EDGE network, you must have an
account with a mobile phone service provider that supports GSM/GPRS/
EDGE data services and an activated Subscriber Identity Module (SIM)
card. The service provider must enable the GPRS/EDGE data features on
your account to activate it.
Definition
A technology that delivers faster data speed than
GPRS to mobile devices. It allows you to connect to
the Internet and send and receive data, including
digital images, web pages, and photographs faster
than with an GSM/GPRS network. If a network
provider does not have EDGE technology deployed,
the HP iPAQ defaults to GPRS data transfer rates.
Because EDGE is integrated into GPRS technology
when it is enabled by your service provider, there is
no visible means of identifying when it is being
used. You will only be aware of it by faster
data transmission.
Technology that provides data transfer and is
typically used for Web browsing and to send and
receive small bursts of data such as e-mail and
Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS) messages.
Technology used to make mobile phone calls and
provide data service with roaming capabilities in
designated areas.
Allows you to exchange multimedia communications
(such as audio and video clips, pictures, and text)
between your HP iPAQ and other devices.
Intelligence module that operates the phone features
on your HP iPAQ. It contains a computer chip with
information about your phone number, service,
registration information, and contacts. It also
contains the memory to store speed dial numbers
and text messages. A SIM card either comes with
your HP iPAQ or must be purchased from a mobile
phone service provider or electronics store.
A way of sending messages using up to 160
characters to mobile devices that use GSM.
