The module has in built-in XML parser. Thus server based XML-applications can be accessed by the user using the application module. The application module with its 320x240 px color screen and its alphanumeric keyboard can be seen as an additional (beside an PC-browser) front-end to display and access web-content. It follows the very well-know client-server principle, where central internet content (Webserver) can be accessed by a PC-based browser.

Example of a weather forecast on the optiPoint application module

You can use WAP/WML on optiPoint phones by an optiPoint application module. The module has a built-in browser.

Scope

WAP technology is driven by mobile phone internet access. Although it has in mobile world a negative image (because of small screens and high mobile internet rates), the technology itself is proven.

Major advantage compared to standard HTML: WML offers smaller footprint, drops each kind of pop-ups, advertisements, etc. and concentrates really on providing the information itself.
There are many WAP/WML content providers available in the internet. Most of them are free and all can be accessed by the optiPoint application module.
