The All About Symbian WAP site
Introduction
The All About Symbian WAP Site allows you to all of the content
(except the Developers tutorials and references) on AAS via your
Symbian device (or via any other WAP browser). The WAP site is optimised
for display on small mobile devices. We know that you can use a
Symbian device to surf the web, but the wap ite is much friendlier
for a small screen than the WWW site and is a lot quicker too!
On this page we lead you through some of the features and pages
available via the WAP site.
What's available?
The
AAS WAP page is to be found at http://wap.allaboutsymbian.com/,
you can type this address into the wap browser on your phone and
you will be taken to the front page of AAS's WAP site.
From this page you can access the various sections of the WAP site.
- News - access to the news headlines and stories. You
can choose the main link to display stories from all categories
or choose the other links to display stories from a certain category
(Series 60 [7650, 3650 users], P800, 92x0 and Symbian and General).

using our new forum engine.

Screenshots
The Forum
You can now access the forum for both reading and posting via the
WAP site. You can see how browsing the forum works by following
the screenshots below.
Reviews
The reviews section shows reviews in real time from the rest
of the site using Befar technology (Really? - Ewan). Notice that
the review index page has several extra options over and above specific
device reviews lists.
Software Directory
Enables you to view entries in the software directory.
Downloads and more
Here are a few more sceenshots, this time displaying downloads
and external news section. Note that links on the front page in
downloads will take you straight into the appropriate category for
that device. However there are some categories (such as polyphonic
ringtones), that are suitable for more than one device, and these
are found on the top level of downloads.
