WAP Services
Using WAP in the T600/T602
The typical WAP client is a small, portable device
which is connected to a wireless network. This
includes mobile phones, pagers, smart phones,
PDAs and other small devices. In these devices,
you have a limited user interface, low memory and
computing power compared to desktop and lap-
top computers.
The WAP browser in the T600/T602 is designed
for WML. It is suitable for interaction with cus-
tomer services, e.g. ticket reservation. It is also
handy when you want to access text-based infor-
mation, such as timetables, share prices and
exchange rates and Internet banking and other
interactive services.
The built in WAP browser gives the user portable,
fast and secure access to a wide variety of ser-
vices, with the possibility of personalized ser-
vices. WAP in the T600/T602 offers new
opportunities to companies and service providers:
Bearer type
The T600/T602 accesses WAP over a standard
GSM Data connection, including High Speed Data
(HSCSD). (Network-dependent services.)
Connection-oriented
Supporting connection-oriented WAP, the T600/
T602 provides WAP browsing with a high reliabil-
ity. Connectionless WAP is also supported.
Bandwidth efficiency
One of the key advantages WAP has over text-
based HTML pages on mobile devices, is the
bandwidth efficiency of communication. This is
due partly to the fact that the WAP application is
communicated to the wireless devices in the form
of binary encoded data.
Provide settings
Using SMS messages, configuration settings can
be sent over the air, OTA, so that the user does
not need to configure the WAP access settings
manually.
The WAP profiles
The T600/T602 holds eight WAP profiles, each
with a group of network settings and a homepage.
If you provide a corporate WAP service on your
Intranet, it is useful to enter an Intranet WAP pro-
file in user phones. The WAP profile holds network
settings and user identification. The users switch
between corporate services and WAP services on
the Internet, by switching WAP profile.
