the user can play, compose, edit and send melodies by using the Music DJ. The built-in sound synthesizer uses wave tables, real instrument sounds, with 40 voices polyphony.

Browsers use a default presentation for documents without style sheets. By adding a style sheet to the document the developer can control the presentation of the document, the colours, fonts, and layout.

On the Web, the de facto standard style sheet language is Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), specified by the W3C and implemented in IE, Netscape, and Opera. For mobile phones, the OMA has identified a subset of CSS and extended it with OMA specific style rules. The CSS subset and the OMA extensions are called Wireless CSS (WCSS).

The WAP browser supports WCSS 1.1

GPRS uses Internet-style packet-based technology. GPRS gives the benefits of a permanently available connection to the mobile Internet, but only uses the radio link for the length of time it takes to transfer data. GPRS offers the user the speed needed for satisfactory mobile Internet usability. The phone supports GPRS 4+2.

The WAP browser supports the markup languages of WAP 2.0 – XHTML Mobile and XHTML Basic. These two subsets of the Web standard XHTML are
