What Do You Use WAP For? 49
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?"

This might explain why few people use WAP.... Use it once and after you get the bill you are no longer able to push the buttons on your phone...
It's pretty useless. (Score:1, Informative)
But beyond doing things as simple as that it's mostly useless. It's much quicker to look up movie times on my PC before I leave the house, I now carry a Gameboy Advance SP for playing in waiting rooms - and I shop online in the first place rather than compare prices to the store.
The web is quite usable on a Palm with the Blazer browser - even reads Slashdot no problem (although the light index [slashdot.org] sometimes helps).
