Automatic Frequency Band Selection

Your HP iPAQ has an integrated GSM/GPRS/EDGE feature that supports four different frequency bands which allow for international roaming. When traveling between countries and wireless network operators, the automatic selection feature changes the frequency bands of the GSM/ GPRS/EDGE connection settings. It does this by initiating an automatic search for network frequency bands when your home bands are not available. This automatic selection feature is the default setting on your HP iPAQ.
