Dr. Evil,
If the phone uses the Openwave Gateway, I use subscriber-id, which
isn't the phone number, but is unique to the phone (or rather the SIM, as if
you move your SIM to another phone you get the same subscriber_id). Its sent
in the http header.
Details of Wap Push will be on Openwave's Web Site. Their
documentation is good.

Right, I looked into that and UP.browser is a particular kind of
browser. Not all mobiles will have it. It looks like there is a lot
of variation out there, so I will just look through my server logs for
clients that have unusual browser types and add them in.
Now, maybe you can answer another question: Is there any way to detect
the phone number of the browser, or anything else that would let me
send a WAP push back to the same browser?
