It's been a while since I've thought this, but what the hell...

Steve, you're talking bollocks!

GPRS may compress the data, but it must be done in such a way that it
can be uncompressed with no data loss at the other end.

As I'm sat here with a laptop with both a wireless broadband connection
and a GPRS connection (£1 spent, 66 minutes to go), can you really point
me to any jpg that would look different if viewed on one connection and
then the other?
