Humm so what happens when you receive a phone call?

I guess GPRS turns off.

On a Blackberry device how does it differ? Does BB not use GPRS as well?

I've just found a document that says that for Symbian devices (like your
p910) you can ONLY use a gprs connection even if the device is in its
cradle.

"In Symbian devices, you can notice that the client is running OK on
the
background if there is a GPRS connection icon on your phones screen. In
Pocket
PC devices, you see a small Duality logo in the lower right corner on the
Today
screen, which indicates its status."

"5.2.1 Reading Emails
New emails arrive to your phone automatically whenever you receive new
email
and your push client is running and there is a GPRS network coverage. If
GPRS
network connection is lost the Duality Push Client tries to reconnect
automatically."

"5.6 Docking the Device to its Cradle
Docked operations are available only for Windows Mobile devices. Duality
Push
Client for Symbian devices operates always over GPRS connection."

Not good IMHO
