It is not a public root and it is not available over the internet either
A closed service available solely over the gprs network

Until the users want to access the same stuff from their
PC and they petition for it to be in the public root too
To the public if it looks like internet they expect it to
work like internet
You are misunderstanding. The data in .gprs is used by infrastructure
in the GSM networks to decide where a user's home station is. End users
have no way of interacting with this infrastructure (beyond turning on
their phones outside their home country).
When a user "surfs the internet" from their handheld device they get the
real Internet, not some walled garden that has .gprs.
