6.4 Using Wireless Manager
Wireless Manager allows you to manage and view the status of
GPRS/UMTS, Bluetooth or Wireless LAN connections. You can use the
device’s Power Save Mode to make optimal use of the battery under

communicate with other devices on the network, you need to have a
SIM or USIM card installed on your device.
