Wap/gprs

[de_LICA_ish18]

Can someone tell me what the difference is between these services. I have it enabled on my phone but have noticed different charges. I thought it was all the same thing????

I don't know too much about the technical differences, except that gprs is a lot quicker, but make sure it's available in your area. Just bought a new Nokia 6835 and couldn't get GPRS to work. Called Telstra and was informed that it was only available in Melbourne and they couldn't give a rollout date to Mildura.

So I had to change back to WAP and still haven't had a chance to try the new system. WAP's still pretty handy though particularly for checking my Emails, sports scores, weather etc.
