• GPRS, HSCSD, AND CSD
With your phone you can use General Packet Radio Service (GPRS), High-Speed Circuit
Switched Data (HSCSD), and Circuit Switched Data (CSD). GPRS is a technology used
to send and receive data using short bursts or packets over the wireless network. With
GPRS, you can stay connected to the mobile Internet and allow for faster downloads
without completing a dial-up connection. Applications using GPRS include the
browser, text messaging, and dial-up connections for making digital data calls.
