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 or GPRS and data transfer speed, contact
your service provider.
The applications that may use EGPRS or GPRS are MMS, video streaming, browsing
sessions, remote SyncML, Java application downloading, and the PC dial-up.
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 GPRS or
GSM data
(circuit-switched data, CSD).
