Well, being one of the fools who bought a WAP phone on Vodafone, I don`t

actually have the option of checking out every WAP site thanks to their

walled garden system. However, there are still a few gems available

including The Hitchhikers Guide which has made many a long train journey fly

by and the pretty nifty Guardian Unlimited site.


BBC News makes me laugh though with its tiny summaries that leave you

longing for more. Surely a few more words wouldn`t kill? Pleeeeaaasse?


Actually, come to think of it, those are about the only WAP sites I`ve spent

any real time on, except for picking up emails etc.


I know it's not exactly (or even remotely) a WAP service but I have just

ordered a CD via text message from Scan (www.scan.com). To be honest I

wasn`t expecting the service to work but my order arrived in 3 days - and

they even called me to confirm the order -which kind of defeated the object

but it was a nice touch!


Just my rambling mobile experiences...
