10.4 GPRS/3G
Use GPRS/3G (or EDGE, if available) to connect to the Internet and to send
and receive picture messages on your device. You will need a data plan
to use your wireless service provider’s GPRS/3G network. Check with your
wireless service provider to find out about GPRS/3G rates.
GPRS/3G settings are already preconfigured on your device, and your device
is ready to use your wireless service provider’s GPRS/3G services. Do not
change the settings as this may cause services to stop working.
