Whats is GPRS ? GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) is a cellular networking service that supports WAP, SMS text messaging, and other data communications. GPRS technology is integrated into so-called 2.5G mobile phones designed to provide faster data transfer speeds than older 2G cellular networks. GPRS is a slower alternative to EDGE 2.5G cellular networking. GPRS supports theoretical data rates up to 171 Kbps compared to the 473 Kbps speed of EDGE. What is EV-DO ? EV-DO is a high-speed network protocol used for wireless data communications, primarily Internet access. EV-DO is considered a broadband technology like DSL or cable modem Internet services Following are Downlink and Uplink Speeds: EVDO R 0 - 2.4 Mbps Down  and 0.15 Mbps Up EVDO R A - 3.1 Mbps Down and 0.8 Mbps Up EVDO R B/C - 14.7 Mbps Down and 3.6 Mbps Up -Jak

There is simply a TCP socket waiting in accept mode on a cloud Google server. The TCP connection had been initiated by the Goggle Play application. That's why Google Play must be installed on the device for making Google Cloud Messaging (GCM). When this TCP client socket receives some message, the message contains information such as the package name of the application it should be addressed to, and of course - the data itself. This data is parsed and packed into an intent that is broadcast and eventually received by the application. The TCP socket stays open even when the device's radio state turns into "idle" mode. Applications don't have to be running to receive the intents.

The most common confusion in the 2 roles of Agile-SCRUM is between Scrum Master & Product Owner. The Scrum Master is in charge of making sure the Scrum process is followed. The Product Owner (PO) is the person in charge of making sure the product succeeds in the direction the company wants to go. The PO does this by setting priorities of product backlog items, making sure all needed parties are there for both the sprint planning and sprint review (both are very important). If something occurs and either the scope explodes or decisions need to be made, the PO is the person who gives the answers to the decisions. Product owner act as the feature prioritize(r) and main point of contact between business/customer and IT team. If product not succeed and probably reason is prioritization issue then product owner may be "single wringable neck" person. The Scrum Master is making sure the process gets followed and working through the adaptation of Scrum to your organization. By do...
