Hello -

What can you do with WAP access?
Why would I want it?
Is WAP what allows you to use the web browser, or i sthere more to WAP than that?

I am getting an SE47 this weekend, and wonder if I will have it if I am on Verizon and is it FREE on Verizon?

thanks, but I didn't ask 'how' to configure the phone to do it - I asked "what does it do for me'?

Sorry.

It gives you the intraweb on your phone. If you want to mess with your phone buy a data cable.

WAP access costs $5/month with Verizon. It gives you essentially (slow) text-based access to the internet. The phone is easily setup to get WAP for free. For free, its a neat diversion, but for a fee, its probably not worth it.

why do you guys have to get all technicly for these people who just want simple answers?

its internet for your phone, can go to any site you want (if u go thru google) or sites just designed for mobile phones (more features), and some sites have pics, color or b/w, just like regular internet.
