2025-07-20 15:06:43 +0000 UTCI think the Nokia N95 supported WAP, and it definitely supported wifi!

2025-07-20 11:30:43 +0000 UTCIf you can find a Series 80 Nokia communicator (9300i/9500) that supports WAP and WiFi. And has a lovely big internal screen!

2025-07-20 06:59:43 +0000 UTCYou could test using a palm pilot tx that has wifi and use one of the browsers that supports WAP. Or maybe Psion Series 5mx with some sort of serial internet bridge or compact flash wifi card.

2025-07-20 06:53:36 +0000 UTCSerious question would something like this be helpful for developing countries or are they basically going straight to smart phones or have the speed and capability beyond this era of mobile computing in the west?
