GPRS = General Packet Radio
Service. With GPRS you can be always-on. You can be continuously
connected to data networks and use your favourite information and
entertainment services. Furthermore, GPRS enables immediate connectivity
and higher data throughput than before, so information retrieval is
more accessible and convenient. The main initial use for GPRS is to have it as a bearer for WAP services. In GPRS technology the data is sent in ‘packets’; this is well suited to the bursty nature of data applications. GPRS can also be used as a bearer for PC applications in a similar way as GSM Data (CSD) and HSCSD are used (please see the FAQ section). At its best, GPRS is invisible, allowing you to concentrate on the task at hand rather than on the technology. With (WAP over) GPRS, billing schemes based on the amount of information sent or received are possible, rather than on connection time. |
