Making Your Data Connections
User’s Guide 7–3

Impact of Data Connection When
Phone Call is Received
Class B mobile phones may be attached to both GPRS and GSM
services, using one service at a time. Class B enables making/
receiving a voice call, or sending/receiving an text message
during a GPRS connection. During voice calls or text messaging,
GPRS services are suspended and then resumed automatically
after the call or text message session has ended.
Using GSM/GPRS/EDGE Connections
GSM/GPRS/EDGE technology is integrated into your HP iPAQ.
To send or receive data over a GSM/GPRS/EDGE network, you
must have an account with a mobile telephone service provider
that supports GSM/GPRS/EDGE data services and an activated
SIM card. The service provider must enable the GPRS data
features on your account to activate it and must have EDGE
technology on the network for this capability to be used on the
HP iPAQ. If EDGE is not enabled, the HP iPAQ will use GPRS.
Creating a GPRS/EDGE Connection
A GPRS connection provides high-speed data transfer and is
typically used for Web browsing and to send and receive small
bursts of data such as e-mail and MMS messages.
To create a GPRS connection, you must subscribe with a GSM
service provider that supports GPRS. After you configure your
GPRS connection and connect to the GPRS network, you may be
required to authenticate GPRS.
Note: Your service provider must enable the GPRS features on
your account.
