Vodafone Malta launches
WAP
Vodafone Malta Ltd on Tuesday launched the Wireless Application
Protocol (WAP) and became the first mobile telecommunications
company in Malta offering the service.
WAP allows any mobile phone user using a WAP enabled phone to
access WAP enabled material on the Internet.
Michael Darmanin, Vodafone Malta’s sales manager, said
the company had promised it would be on the cutting edge of
service development in the mobile communications arena in Malta.
“The launch of WAP is yet another indication of our commitment
to that promise,” he said.
WAP will provide mobile phone users with the ability to have
access to a lot of information which is on the Internet. Prices
for WAP access are based on the data rates. These are the off-peak
rate prices on the particular tariff plan, that is for contract
or e-talk subscribers and range between 11c5 to 12c per minute.
The average WAP session is about three minutes.
The WAP service is also available to non-Vodafone Malta Ltd
clients whether they are on the
network or if they are roaming
customers.
