Subject: Re: MobileLBSList: about the wml gateway
Date:  08/20/2000 01:31:53 PM
From:  Ryan Fife


You don't need to have a WAP gateway to run a WAP site...just as you don't
need a modem pool to host a web site. There are times that it is in your
interest to run your own WAP gateway, but it doesn't sound like you need it.

The advantage of having the gateway is you can control the default links that
people see - this is where you would approach the operators and get your site
put on their default portal.

For an article on when you might need your own WAP gateway, see:
