Easy create for WAP
Creating a WAP service is no harder than creating 
an Intranet/Internet service today since WML and 
WMLScript are based on well-known Internet tech-
nology. New market segments can be addressed 
by launching innovative mobile Value Added Serv-
ices.
Using standard tools
It is possible for the service creator to use standard 
tools like ASP or CGI to generate content dynami-
cally. You can utilize existing investments in data-
bases etc that are the basis of existing Internet 
services. Create a service once and make it acces-
sible on a broad range of wireless networks.
Maintain customer base
You can adapt existing Internet services to WAP. 
The actual binary encoding can be handled by the 
WAP Gateway which makes it possible to create 
WAP applications using the text-based language 
WML and other tools. In fact, existing HTML-based 
applications on the Internet can be viewed in the 
WAP browser, if an automatic conversion is per-
formed in the WAP Gateway.
Improve productivity
Improve and simplify the communication flow 
within an organization by making information avail-
able to mobile users. A company or organization 
can use a WAP gateway to provide a secure con-
nection to the company network for their users.
The WAP profiles
The T100/T102 holds a number of WAP profiles, 
each with a group of network settings and a home 
page. If you provide a corporate WAP service on 
your Intranet, it is useful to enter an Intranet WAP 
profile in user phones. The WAP profile holds net-
work settings and user identification. Users can 
easily switch between corporate services and WAP 
services on the Internet, simply by switching WAP 
profile.
Connection-orientated WAP
The T100/T102 supports connection-oriented WAP 
over GSM Data. In general, this means that the 
connection between the WAP browser in the phone 
and the WAP Gateway is maintained in a session 
with error recovery services. This gives a high relia-
bility with a reduced risk of errors in the transmis-
sion, and improves efficiency in WAP browsing.
Bearer type characteristics
The phone accesses WAP services over IP, which 
is provided over GSM Data.
Advantages with GSM data access:
Circuit connection of data call, which means 
that the phone is connected during the entire 
WAP session.
Comparably higher transmission speed than 
with SMS access.
Pricing of GSM Data access can be compared 
to pricing of data calls in the network.
GSM Data is suitable for Complex Pull services, 
Browsing and Data transfer.
The WAP Gateway provides services in the com-
pany’s Intranet, a banking or stock trading service 
on the Internet, or access to other WAP applica-
tions on web addresses anywhere on the Internet.
GSM Data is not suitable for Provisioning, Pager 
service.
