Has anyone used WAP (viewing internet on mobile phones) ?

Has anyone here used W.A.P. (Wireless Application Protocol) to access the net?

Wireless Application Protocol (commonly referred to as WAP) is an open international standard[1] for application layer network communications in a wireless communication environment. Its main use is to enable access to the Internet (HTTP) from a mobile phone or PDA.

A WAP browser provides all of the basic services of a computer based web browser but simplified to operate within the restrictions of a mobile phone, such as its smaller view screen. WAP sites are websites written in, or dynamically converted to, WML (Wireless Markup Language) and accessed via the WAP browser.

Before the introduction of WAP, service providers had extremely limited opportunities to offer interactive data services. Interactive data applications are required to support now commonplace activities such as:

    * Email by mobile phone
    * Tracking of stock market prices
    * Sports results
    * News headlines
    * Music downloads

The Japanese i-mode system is another major competing wireless data protocol.

I'm just curious if anyone would be willing to test out OER on their mobile or iphone via one of the following links.....
