19 Connect to the Wireless Internet
Your phone has a built-in browser you can use to
connect to selected services on the Internet. You
can view weather reports, check news or flight
times, view financial information, and much more.
You can also save the address of any Wireless
Internet site as a bookmark, much the same way
you bookmark a Web page on your personal computer.
Note: Your phone must be switched on to use this function. Do
not switch the phone on when wireless phone use is prohibited or
when it may cause interference or danger.
Note: All features may not be available on all carrier networks.
Please check with your service provider for availability. If your phone
does not display “Services” on its menu, your network provider does
not support these features at this time.
NOTES ON WIRELESS INTERNET ACCESS
This section gives a brief overview of wireless Internet access and provides
some notes that may be useful in understanding wireless access.
Technology background
A technology called Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) is to mobile devices
what the World Wide Web (WWW) is to desktop computers. The mobile
community began developing WAP several years ago to provide access to
the Internet for mobile users.
Today, most WAP sites consist of text and hyperlinks, and some sites can
accept text input. Some pages even contain low-resolution graphics. Your
service provider and others are free to design WAP sites as they choose,
so the sites are as variable as Web pages on the Internet.
