No this is not true. A wap gateway is not mandatory, and I think is really "too much". You can also send a simple wap-push using a binary SMS as a "Service Indication". In the wap-push message you will need to set the URL for the content. The URL can be a normal webserver with good wap headers. The wapbox could be useful if you don't know how to create a wap-push binary sms. > If someone could explain this or point me to that document that I've > been unable to find I would be eternally grateful. > Cheers, Simon. Check for http://www.google.it/search?hl=it&q=sms+%22service+indication%22+wap+push&btnG=Cerca&meta= you will find some google links to read, this one can be a point to start: http://discussion.forum.nokia.com/forum/archive/index.php/t-7278.html J PS: I've not tested the binary in that link, it's just to let you understand what I mean.
