Packet data

General packet radio service (GPRS) is a network service that allows mobile phones
to send and receive data over an Internet protocol (IP) based network. GPRS is a
data bearer that enables wireless access to data networks such as the Internet.
Enhanced GPRS (EGPRS) is similar to GPRS but enables faster connections. For
more information on availability of EGPRS and data transfer speed, contact your
network operator.
The applications that may use EGPRS include MMS, video streaming, browsing
sessions, e-mail, remote SyncML, Java application downloading, and PC dial-up.
When you have selected GPRS as a data bearer, the device 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 GPRS or GSM data
(circuit-switched data, CSD).
Packet data settings
You can connect the device using Bluetooth wireless technology, IR, or data
cable connection to a compatible PC and use the phone as a modem to enable
EGPRS for packet data connectivity from the PC.
To define the settings for packet data connections from your PC, select Menu >
Settings > Connectivity > Packet data > Packet data settings > Active access
point, activate the access point you want to use, and select Edit active access
point. Select Alias for access point, enter a name to change the access point
settings, and select OK. Select Active access point, enter the access point name
(APN) to establish a connection to an packet data network, and select OK.
You can also set the packet data dial-up service settings (access point name)
on your PC using the Nokia Modem Options software. See "PC Suite," p. 82. If you
have set the settings both on your PC and on your phone, the PC settings are used.

Data transfer and synchronization

Synchronize your calendar, contacts data, and notes with other
compatible devices (such as a mobile phone, a PC, or a remote Internet
server (network service).
Partner list
To copy or synchronize data from your phone, the name of the device and the
settings must be in the list of partners in transfer contacts. If you receive data
from another device (for example, a compatible mobile phone), the partner is
automatically added to the list, using the contact data from the other device.
Server sync and PC sync are the original items in the list.
