What Do You Use WAP For?

Posted by Cliff on from the for-those-of-you-still-using-it dept.

FePe asks: "I have a Siemens M55 with WAP support, and I have experimented a little with it. I can search on Google, upload my own pages in WML (try this on your mobile phone, which isn't a WML page, but it works anyway), and also browse other small regular HTML pages. It seems to me that nearly nobody uses WAP these days, at least that's what my impression is, so I was wondering if Slashdot readers use WAP, if you use it at all?"

  1. Flight gates and times by Jmstuckman · · Score: 2, Interesting

    The only time that I really feel a need for WAP is looking up flight gates and status on the way to the airport. It's great to know if your flight is delayed ahead of time, but WAP tends to be too slow and clumsy for anything else.
