One aspect of the new One Touch 502 that truly sets it apart is the fact that it features GPRS monoslot technology. This is ideal for WAP transmissions as the packets of data involved are relatively small and do not require more transmission channels. The end result is a mobile that is ready for a far more interactive WAP experience.

The new cost-effective One Touch 502 enables pay-as-you-use invoicing depending on service provider policy. This breakthrough technology means that any charges for using WAP services will be calculated on how many kilobytes of data you send or receive, and not on the time spent per communication.

Another important feature is the One Touch 502's ability to store 10 WAP profiles. This translates into much more freedom for the user who can customize 10 completely different WAP gateways, store them in memory, and thus avoid having to change settings or note new passwords every time he wishes to explore WAP via another gateway. Equally useful, the One Touch 502 allows you to store 10 WAP bookmarks for all your favourite WAP addresses.

The One Touch 502 includes 3 integrated games (puzzle, music and logic). You also have the possibility of composing and storing two melodies, so your mobile can ring to the sound of your own very personal creativity.

Beyond offering the ground-breaking innovation of instant WAP, the new One Touch 502 is an impressive example of contemporary mobile phone design. Ultra-light at only 103 grammes, it is compact, elegantly styled and easy to use. Advanced features include voice recognition and a handy voice memo function. An extra large graphic display allows up to 8 lines of text.

The new phone also incorporates personal organizer functions to let you synchronize and store up to 1,200 appointments, manage schedules and record up to 500 contact files. It is also available in two brand new handset colours, Canon Grey and Orient Red.
