In general it's best to select GSM-only(eliminates possible conflicts between GPRS-synching and the T68-software---remember GPRS is not fully error-free itself), it laso saves battery-power. And yes, you loose the cool GPRS-indicator above the normal one

But here in Belgium GPRS is not widely available to the public.
Let's hope 2002 changes that....

well...
...I'm not that interested in turning off GPRS, since I use that more than GSM-speech. I follow stocks, read news and this fora via GPRS...
...during meetings, waitong for the bus, at the bus, when walking...
...with all wapping I still haven't gotten over 1 MB of data during my 11 days with my T68.
The pricing of GPRS in Sweden is cheap. 5MB with my operator Telia costs 100 SEK (about £6 or $9). Until mid-febuary you get 25MB a month. I think the swedish operators has realized that they cannot overprize this when users are used to "free" Internet...

JHB, by selecting GSM only, you do not forgoe the benefits of GPRS wap, you can still access Wap via GPRS, the only difference is when you end your Wap Session, it defaults to GSM and you receive more calls
Hope this helps

I have no problems before GPRS hangs, I often get calls when wapping over GPRS without any problems. It used to hang almost evey time I stopped loading a page when using R1B, now this only happens once a day (mostly when pages stops loading due to connection problems, or it might be the other way around). I'll try to change the setting anyway. If it helped you, why wouldn't it help me.

Hmm, a lot of you guys seems to have problems with gprs,..I dont. It works fine all the time. I have been using it since summer this year.
My T-68 is always on GPRS,..and there is no battery-loss at all.
I used GPRS with my T-39 as well, no battery-loss here either.
Some say that gprs should drain the battery, well, in my case, its more like the opposite
I have approx. 355 hours standby on T-68.
and had approx. 300 hours on T-39.
And my bluetooth is set to Automatic,..it only drains battery, when set to "ON",..when using voicedialling.
We have in DK currently 2 operators with GPRS-network,..and a third one is on the way.
It seems to be a "slow-starter", but coming along
