“WAP, or Wireless Application Protocol, allows you to create and view web pages on wireless devices like cell phones or within handheld computers like the Palm. Why have a WAP search engine? First, using an ordinary search engine through a wireless device may not be possible or inconvenient. WAP search engines should be designed for low-bandwidth and small screen viewing. More importantly, an ordinary search engine is going to direct you to normal web pages, which again aren’t designed for handheld devices. A WAP search engine will direct you to WAP pages, all which are specifically meant for your device.”
