Multimedia messaging service (MMS)
The phone is able to send multimedia messages composed of text and a
picture, and to receive messages containing text, a picture, and sound. You
can save the pictures and ringing tones for personalizing your phone. See
Messages (Menu 1) .
General packet radio service (GPRS)
GPRS technology allows mobile phones to send and receive data over a mobile
network and access data networks like the Internet.
GPRS uses a technology called packet data. Data files are sent in short bursts
over the mobile system instead of in a continuous stream. This way, the
system is busy only when sending or receiving data. Because GPRS uses the
system more efficiently, data connections are set up quickly and data is
transferred at faster speeds.
Applications that use GPRS are WAP services, MMS, text messaging, instant
messaging, e-mail, and Java application downloading.
Contact your service provider about subscribing to GPRS, the cost of using a
GPRS connection, and the cost of different applications such as MMS, text
messaging, and WAP services.
