I agree with wiz. As for battery, it only drains when you request or send some data..i've tried this.. This message was posted from a T610

I've experienced this ONCE with my K700i (3 day old), I sent an email, then after it has been sent the blue 'globe' image on top-left still shows and I just have to have it removed as my connection charges me - continuously ! I turned the fone OFF, then ON again!

This works out to be pretty convenient for us in India...gprs is quite cheap and theres unlimited access at a flat fee..i used to receive calls wth the gprs globe on and never missed a connection on my k700..

If I'm not mistaken you're always connected to GPRS. The globe denotes that you are sending or revieving data through it or in the browser. With GPRS you are only charged by the amount of data transfered and not how long you stay staring at a window in your browser.

H m m m . . . what I know is that the local network charges the user depending on the kilobyte (kb) he/she have downloaded, in effect to visit various sites, or even just it's homepage, you are already downloading some kb/s on your fone. That's how it works here pal. Though it only costs php 0.25/kb downloaded . . .

JN is right. So even if u r always connected u only for for the traffic and that's all. And about the other starting topic: u r always connected and if it disconnects is cuz the operators try to save some band for users who really need it. This means that if u r connected for a few hours and the system "sees" u r not using the gprs will disconnect so others might have a chance to use it. All u have to do is open the browser or the mail and the system will auto-connect allowing u to use ur gprs. To be always connected just turn ur e-mail client auto-checking e-mails every 4 hours and u'll always be connected. quite simple. I know this for a fact, 1st hand from an engineer working for an operator over here.

I am in Romania. Here i have a 3$ subscription and i have 10MB included but at 3G speed( 56kbps/sec) and any extra MB would cost me 30 cents. If i find it insufficient i'll go at 50 MB per month for 10$/ month. Which is excellent!
