Where to use

The WinWAP browser is suitable to be used for both business and fun. In the business world it can be used to have access to the mobile services from your Pocket PC in addition to having access from your mobile phone. As Pocket PC's have a larger screen and easier user interface it is very convenient to use the WAP services on the Pocket PC instead of on the phone. If you have Bluetooth connectivity in both your phone and Pocket PC, you can very comfortably use WAP on your Pocket PC's larger screen without any wires or having to align the IR port. If you are looking for fun, the WinWAP browser provides access to all the same services (chat, information, google etc.) that you use on your mobile phone. Some telecom operators require that you are using a GPRS/3G connection and set WinWAP to use their WAP Gateway in order to get access to the telecom operator specific services.

Difference between a regular Web-browser and WinWAP

Traditional web-services are provided in HTML format, and mobile services (WAP) in WML or xHTML-MP (Mobile Profile). Traditional web browsers like MS Pocket Internet Explorer do not fully support the WAP format and connection- protocols, so in order to have access to WAP pages you must have a WAP enabled browser. WinWAP is especially designed to provide a comfortable and user-friendly experience when browsing mobile content.
