Regarding "what do I use kannel for": I use it to connect to many SMSCs/operators (on different countries also), over regular TCP/IP and also over VPNs using SMPP and HTTP APIs. I also developed a simple HTTP API with PHP to accomodate my own requirements to connect third parties to my setup.
Regarding WAP, I just do WAP-Push but using a binary encoded message over SMS (not using Wapbox). Over that platform, I use it to content delivery (ringtones, wallpapers, etc) and also interactive SMS games. I am also starting to use SQLBox mostly to handle massive deliveries.
