15 The wireless Internet

WAP is the mobile device’s equivalent of the Internet. The mobile community began developing WAP in the late 1990s so that mobile device users could access the Internet. Today, most WAP sites are composed of text, hyperlinks, and low-resolution graphics. Because your wireless provider and others are free to design WAP sites as they choose, each WAP page can vary almost as much as a web page on the Internet.

Note: Check with your wireless provider for WAP service availability.

Note: WAP pages are designed using Wireless Markup Language (WML). Since web pages are designed using Hyper Text Mark-up Language (HTML), web pages cannot be viewed from your phone.

• THE SERVICES MENU

Use your WAP browser to get news, weather reports, access financial information, and more. WAP pages can be saved as bookmarks, the same as web pages on the Internet.

Note: You may need to subscribe to

additional services before you can use the browser. Also, your 15 wireless provider may have to configure your phone for browsing.

Important: Internet content received over a secure connection and stored in your browser’s cache may be reused over non-secure connections and may create security issues. Please check with your wireless provider to determine if emptying your browser’s cache after each browsing session or some other method should be used to avoid security issues.
