How comes you haven't already got GPRS setup for yourself yet?

I am on net and wap via GPRS. I pay aprox 20 euro for it and have 1GB download and upload limit. Also in this price is wap and some other features. When I pass this limit I pay 1euro/MB. So for me GPRS is faster and more comfortable to use as I have both.
BTW. GPRS is even faster as DIAL-UP, that I had.

GPRS is much like cable broadband internet. Its speed is dependent on how many people in your area are using it at the time.

GPRS has the ability to be faster than CSD, but, normally runs at about the same speed; but has the ability to drop down to 0.0 (rare).

Advantages of GPRS are that you're not billed per minute. So you could look at a page as long as you want, and it'll only cost you something like 0.3p to load the page.

Going on Oranges prices. 1mb of data transfer costs 3 pounds. But, saying that, 1mb of data transfer roughly is worth looking at 1200 pages of WAP, and it doesn't matter how long you spend looking at them either, as apposed to dial-up where it does.

Elrond we have only 1000MB... not 1GB

GPRS conection is a very good service - If you travel - it becomes almost perfect

Download speed is 5.6 kilobytes/s (CS2) - better than link dial up

I canīt be satisfied more!

Hi everybody, I have just registered, I was looking around the forum and googled a bit but didn't find any answer to these 2 question.
1- If you u have a satelite download connection can you map the download to the satellite and the ONLY the upload to the gprs thus have a fast unlimitied download and a 1000MB limited upload.
2- Can you connect a mobile PC (laptop, carputer) to your phone and access the wap throught your phone on your computer screen with an emulator(with only wap-gprs).
I have a R520.
Sorry if these questions where already answered

Question 2: Download Opera 7.51 web browser, which allows you to view WAP and WEB pages, or WinWAP 3.1 PRO - which is only for WAP...

I know about opera I even developped a site on an apache server that can interpret wml as php. The question is, can I connect my PC through the cell phone to the wap.
