By default, the GPRS Monitor icon shows three bars that represent the following status information:

Icon Bar 1: Speed (Full bar corresponds

to 19KB/sec.)

Icon Bar 2: Traffic

(Full bar corresponds to 100%. Each bar is 20%.)

Icon Bar 3: Battery (Each bar corresponds to 20% of the total charge.)

When you tap the GPRS Monitor icon on the title bar, a pop-up window opens and shows you detailed statistics about data transfers, such as the data size just transferred and its cost, the data amount left that you are allowed to transfer, and more.

To enter your service plan details

Service plan details, or tariffs, determine the price that you pay for your data transfers. The tariff may either be flat rate or time-based, depending on whether you’re using GPRS or a phone dial-up connection for data transfers.

Contact your service provider to find out about your tariff, and enter the information in the Tariff tab or the Tariff Details tab on the Options screen.

Note The calculation of network usage costs is based on the information that you entered, and is an estimate only. The actual amount billed by your service provider may differ.
