Browser
Your phone comes equipped with a WAP
(Wireless Application Protocol) Browser which
makes it possible for you to access the Wireless
Web.
Before using the WAP Browser, you must set the
parameters for the proxy server used by your
service provider.
The WAP Browser allows you to:
• Access up-to-the-minute information via your
phone
• View specially designed text versions of
popular Internet sites including Yahoo!®, CNN
MobileSM and the Weather Channel®

minimise your bill.
