GPRS/EDGE/HSDPA

GPRS/EDGE

GPRS/EDGE technology provides a connection to the Mobile Phone Network that can be used for Web browsing, MMS messaging, or accessing your corporate network.

NOTE: EDGE is an enhancement to GPRS technology and enables higher speed data connections than GPRS. This means faster phone multimedia capabilities such as sending and receiving SMS/MMS messages, and sharing video clips. Check with your service provider to see if they support EDGE technology. If your service provider does not support the EDGE network, the HP iPAQ defaults to GPRS.

HSDPA

High Speed Download Packet Access (HSDPA) is an enhancement of Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA) which is based on 3G technology, and offers better data compression. Your HP iPAQ supports HSDPA 3.6 to 7.2 mbps that uses WCDMA for high speed downloads. HP iPAQ also supports WCDMA over three different frequency bands (850/1900/2100). When WCDMA or HSDPA is available, the device uses the technology and reverts back to GSM/GPRS/EDGE if WCDMA or HSDPA is unavailable. Your HP iPAQ also supports WCDMA/HSDPA in three different frequency bands (850/1900/2100).l

Differences between GSM and GPRS/EDGE/WCDMA/3G technology

GSM technology is typically used for voice calls and text messaging, whereas GPRS/EDGE/WCDMA/ 3G technology provides a connection to the Mobile Phone Network that can be used for Web browsing, Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS), or accessing your corporate network.

NOTE: Using GPRS/EDGE/WCDMA/3G data services are typically an additional charge to your standard mobile phone service. Check with your mobile phone service provider for data services and cost.

Configure GPRS network settings

The first time you use your SIM card, HP iPAQ DataConnect automatically detects the phone network and operator and sets up the GPRS connection information for you. You can change these settings to suit your preference or create your own network settings.
