Finally got GPRS running on the S55 - thanks to the Siemens FAQ up top.

At any rate... I'm trying to get a clear definition on what the various GPRS icons displaced on the phone.

GPRS - according to manual, this means GPRS activated.
Does that mean the fone:
a) sees GPRS signal and available for use? Like a signal bar for GPRS? or
b) it is connected to the network = power consumption?

My T39M has a GPRS signal bar - it tells me the whether I'm in an area with GPRS. Is this the same thing?

:GPRS: - accord'n to manual, this means connected/logged in. This means... I could be getting charged for any data going back and forth.

GPRS> (red arrow) - I saw this yesterday... and it's not defined in the manual. What does it mean?

Maybe this should be in the FAQ section as well?

Thanks,
Cris
