Asking yourself, what is all this stuff?

3G
The new 'third generation' of mobile communications. With a 3G phone, you can view the internet on your phone even faster than before. You can also make video calls, too.

BLUETOOTH
Bluetooth technology lets your phone connect to other electronic devices with Bluetooth without the need for wires. That might be things like your handsfree headset, a laptop, or another phone.
Top
GPRS
Technology which lets you access the internet on your phone - that's if you have a GPRS enabled phone. Or for even faster internet on your phone, check out '3G' above.

GSM
This stands for Global System for Mobiles. And it's just that - the digital system that mobile phones use to work.
Top
MP3
MP3 technology lets you store CD-quality music on your phone - or on your MP3 player. And if you're using your phone, you can use MP3 ringtones, so you can rock to your favourite tune every time it rings! (Oh, and don't forget - music should only be copied with the owner's permission and solely for personal use.)

OEM
This stands for Original Equipment Manufacturer. If you see 'OEM' on your accessories, it means the company that made it has customised it specially to be used with your phone.
