11. Web

Your phone has a built-in browser you can use to connect to
selected services on the mobile Internet. Many wireless mobile
Internet access features are network-dependent, and some
features may not be available. Contact Orange for more
information.

■ Technology background

A technology called wireless application protocol (WAP) is to mobile devices
what the world wide web (WWW) is to personal computers. The mobile
community began developing WAP several years ago to provide access to the
Internet for mobile users.
Most WAP sites are made up of text and hyperlinks. Some pages even contain
low-resolution graphics, or require data input. Orange and others are free to
design WAP sites as they choose, so the sites are as varied as the web pages on
the Internet.
Internet content on your personal computer is called a web page. Internet
content on your mobile phone is called a page, WAP card, or a deck of cards. You
may not be able to view all the details of the mobile Internet pages, as page
appearance may vary due to screen size.

■ Service provider

Because mobile Internet content is designed to be viewed from your phone,
Orange is now your mobile Internet service provider as well. Orange has created
a home page (Orange World) and set up your WAP browser to go to this page
when you log on to the mobile Internet. Once at your service provider's home
page, you may find links to a number of other sites. For more information on
Orange World, refer to your Orange Getting Started Guide.

■ Access service
