WAP version?

[Anthony]

Do we have many cell phone users here with data services, and if so, would a WAP version of MileTrak (down the road a few months...) be useful? Maybe add trips or administer your account aboard the train where coverage permits?

Just gathering interest to see if anyone would even use this.

thanks

Can you give us some more info on the service? Like what is it supposed to do? Sounds interesting though.

Essentially, it would be an extension of MileTrak that one could access via their data-enabled wireless phone. The basic features would be available, such as add trip, view database, find mileages, etc. I imagine it would be more of a novelty than anything, but even so...

Mobile phones have small screens and web browsers that don't support a lot of images or special styling, so a "WAP site" refers to a web page that is specially formatted for these little phone screens.

I don't have it then.

I'd be interested in this, my phone can be used to access the internet (I'd have to pay for it but it'd be worth it).

I have to upgrade my cell phone in a few days. Maybe I will try and look for one with internet.
