Permanent Internet Connection

[Raeburs]

I am running on Orange 3G in the UK. I have set up my GPRS settings. My phone is now permanently connected to the internet and therefore the battery is running down very quickly.

Does anyone know how to overcome this?

Thanks

I am not certain that I know what you mean, but I presume that you want to go to the COMM MANAGER and disconnect via DATA CONNECTION. This has to be done after each usage of the GPRS, EDGE or 3G capabilities of the phone. Also, to conserve battery power, I believe it is said to be beneficial to switch off RECEIVE INCOMING BEAMS in the BEAM menu. Tell me if that rocks your boat!
