Packet data (general packet radio service, GPRS)
Packet data, or General Packet Radio Service (GPRS),
uses packet data technology where information is sent
in short bursts of data over the mobile network. The
benefit of sending data in packets is that the network is
occupied only when sending or receiving data. Because
GPRS uses the network efficiently, it allows for quick
data connection set up and fast data transmission
speeds.
