What is WAP?
WAP stands for Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) and it means that you can receive specially
written Internet pages on the screen of your mobile phone or PDA.
You no longer have to be seated at your PC to access your online world. WAP does not access the
entire Internet - only those pages specially designed for WAP access.
The point of this standard is to serve internet content and internet services to wireless
clients, WAP devices, such as mobile phones and PDA's.

What information does Racing and Sports make available via WAP?
Racing and Sports currently provides its daily StrikeOne selection, latest Racing and
Sporting news and daily scratchings via WAP.

What makes WAP mobile phones different from other mobile phones?
Well, WAP handsets are equipped with a special 'micro-browser', which means that you can
access Internet pages that have been written in a WAP-compatible language.
Your handset looks just like a typical mobile phone, but you can access text-based content through your
menu by pressing certain buttons on your keypad to select options on the screen.
It is that easy to read the latest news, daily StrikeOne, and keep up to date with
scratchings and state of track information.
