Using Your Smartphone as a Modem

You can use your Smartphone as an external modem for data transfer to and from your computer by using the Sync Cradle and mini USB cable or by using an infrared connection.

Note: To use your Smartphone as a GPRS modem, see “Setting Up Your Smartphone for Wireless Data Service Access” on page 131.

You can use your Smartphone to transfer data only when it is not in a call. If your Smartphone is in a Walkie-Talkie call when you set up a data transfer, the Walkie-Talkie call is ended. You will not receive any type of call or message notifications while transferring data.

For more information on using your Smartphone as a modem, see the Modem User Guide on sprint.com.

I920, I930 specifications

Nextel Communications, once a major player in the wireless telecom industry, introduced a range of innovative devices that catered to the needs of both personal and business users. Among them, the Nextel i930 and i920 stand out as significant models that combined features of traditional mobile phones with push-to-talk (PTT) capabilities.

The Nextel i930 was released as a flip phone, boasting a sleek design that appealed to style-conscious consumers. One of its standout features was the integrated PTT functionality, allowing users to connect instantly with others on their network. This feature was particularly popular among business users who valued quick communication over traditional voice calls. The i930 supported a wide range of Nextel services, including Direct Connect, which enabled users to reach others with just a push of a button, making it an invaluable tool for teams on the move.

On the other hand, the Nextel i920 catered to a similar demographic but in a slightly different form factor. This model featured a candy-bar design, providing a more compact option for those who preferred a straightforward layout. Both devices were equipped with a robust set of features, including a color display, camera capabilities, and various multimedia functions. The i920 also supported messaging services, allowing users to send and receive text messages, thus enhancing its versatility.

In terms of technology, both phones operated on the iDEN network, known for its reliability and extensive coverage at the time. The iDEN technology blended digital voice and data, allowing for seamless communication and efficient use of bandwidth. Users could enjoy enhanced voice clarity and an unparalleled connection quality, making it a preferred choice for those in remote areas.

Battery life was another critical characteristic of both models. The i930 and i920 were designed to provide long-lasting power, enabling users to stay connected throughout their busy days without frequent recharging. Additionally, these devices featured rugged designs suitable for various work environments, aligning with Nextel's image as a provider for professionals in demanding fields.

In summary, the Nextel i930 and i920 encapsulated the essence of Nextel's commitment to blending functionality with style. Their PTT capabilities revolutionized communication methods for many, while their durable designs and robust feature sets solidified their status as essential tools for professionals. Even today, these devices serve as reminders of a time when instantaneous communication was becoming increasingly vital in both personal and professional spheres.
