What is the difference between using GPRS and GSM for my mobile email?
GPRS (General Packet Radio Services) is a packet-based wireless communication service offering continuous connection to the Internet for mobile phone and computer users. GPRS packet-based service will cost you less than circuit-switched services since communication channels are being used on a shared-use, as-packets-are-needed basis rather than dedicated only to one user at a time. Mobile users of a virtual private network (VPN) are able to access the private network continuously rather than through a dial-up connection. GSM (Global System for Mobile communication) is the de facto wireless telephone standard in Europe. GSM has over 120 million users worldwide and is available in 120 countries. Since many GSM network operators have roaming agreements with foreign operators, users can often continue to use their mobile phones when they travel to other countries.
