When you start an application using (E)GPRS, the connection between the
phone and network is established. When you exit the application, the (E)GPRS
connection ends, but the phone is still registred to the (E)GPRS network.

If you receive a call or a text message or make a call during an (E)GPRS
connection, the (E)GPRS connection is suspended (on hold).

The indicator for GPRS and (E)GPRS is the same.

to set the phone to register to an (E)GPRS network and

establish an (E)GPRS connection when an application using (E)GPRS requires

The phone supports three simultaneous (E)GPRS connections. For example, you
can browse XHTML pages, receive multimedia messages, and have an ongoing PC
dial-up connection at the same time.
