3G stands for 'third generation'. What you need to know is that this technology allows data to be transmitted more quickly and in greater quantities over cellular networks. Now it becomes feasible to use mobile phones to send and receive data-hungry applications, like live broadcasts, video clips, e-mails and so on.

• Benefits
  
  3G is 9 times faster than GPRS with a maximum download of 384kbps, ensuring you can do more with your cellphone than ever before. 3G keeps your world totally connected all of the time with seamless handover between 3G, EDGE and GPRS.
  
  
• Video Calling
  
  Making a video call is just as easy as making a voice call. Simply enter the number that you wish to call and press the “video call” button.
  
  
• VideoMail
  
  VideoMail is one of a new generation of applications made possible by 3G – and it will change the way you communicate with business associates, family and friends. How does it work? VideoMail is the communications centre for video calls. It works like your current VoiceMail, but enables you to greet video callers face to face and to invite them to leave you a video message when you're not available. But VideoMail is also more than that: You can send and receive VideoMail messages just as you would e-mails, everywhere you go! Imagine sending a video message to a friend showing them how you are getting into your new car… or to a business associate, showing them the new product you have just spotted at a trade fair. How about sharing a special birthday with your family and being right there when they wake up your mom with coffee in bed for her birthday! The uses are endless.
