Dear List,

I found some info about push technologies on wap phones, see 

Chapter 5: "Creating HDML Services that "Push" Information" 

in the Phone.com developers guide 
http://updev.phone.com/dev/ts/htmldoc/31h/devguide/output/

I'd like to know if anybody here as experience with this technology 
(as a developer as well as a user). 

Are there services (in Japan, Europe or the USA) which already 
use this push technology? How does it work, how do I get the
information pushed as a subscriber and do I have to subscribe? 
Is it difficult to setup?

What do people on the list here think about push technologies 
in general and especially when used on a mobile phone? Is it 
something people will use a lot? Is it "better" then pull on 
phones? What kind of info would you like to get pushed?

As always, thanks a lot in advance for any comments...

Andrea Hoffmann
