This chapter explains how to make and receive phone calls, track your calls,
manage your calls and phone numbers more efficiently, and how to
customize the phone functions.
3.1 About Your Phone
Your device includes an integrated GSM (Global System for Mobile
Communications) / EDGE (Enhanced Data GSM Environment) / GPRS
(general packet radio service) phone.
The integrated phone in the device can also be used to connect the device to
an ISP (Internet Service Provider) or work network so you can browse the
Web and read e-mail. You can connect to the Internet or work network over
GPRS/EDGE, using Cellular Line, or using the modem specified by your
mobile phone service provider.
Before You Start
To use the phone, you need to first set up an account with a GSM/GPRS
mobile phone service provider. The functions available to you depend on the
services offered by your service provider and your type of subscription.
Your service provider will provide you with a SIM (Subscriber Identification
Module) card. This card contains your mobile phone account details and
rights, contacts that can be stored and any additional services to which you
have subscribed. You must install a SIM card before you can make or receive
phone calls or use wireless data services. (For information on installing a
SIM card, see “Installing the SIM Card and Battery” in section 1.2.)
