GPRS/EDGE/HSDPA

Your HP iPAQ is a 3.5G device that supports high and better data throughput. It supports HSDPA known as 3.5G to transmit data, WCDMA known as 3G to transmit voice and data, EDGE known as 2.75G to transmit data, GPRS known as 2.5G to transmit data, and GSM known as 2G to transmit voice.

HSDPA

High Speed Download Packet Access (HSDPA), also known as 3.5G, is an enhancement of Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA) which is based on 3G technology, and offers better data throughput. Your HP iPAQ supports HSDPA 3.6 to 7.2 Mbps for high speed downloads. HP iPAQ also supports WCDMA over three different frequency bands (850/1900/2100). When WCDMA or HSDPA is available, the HP iPAQ 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).

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.

Differences between GSM and GPRS/EDGE/WCDMA/HSDPA technology

GSM technology is typically used for voice calls and text messaging, whereas GPRS/EDGE/ WCDMA/HSDPA technology provides a data 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/HSDPA 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.
