   UKCompass on the move
 

WAP

If you have a WAP enabled mobile phone it's easy to access the UKCompass service while you are on the move.

Just log on to the site at http://ukcompass.com/ from any WAP enabled device. You can also access UKCompass via Bango.net - our Bango number is !123456 (what's this?).

It means you can have useful, location specific information at your fingertips - no matter how far you are from your PC.

3G

As other ways of accessing the internet appear, UKCompass will endeavour to make it's data available through as many channels as possible, including hand-held computers and third generation (3G) handsets.

3G Phone  The new technology (UMTS) promises far higher wireless connection speeds than are available with WAP and GPRS, and offers full colour displays, animation and even streaming video.

UKCompass is one of the pioneers of 3G services, having developed and now hosting one of the world's first live 3G sites, as part of the Manx Telecom 3G trial. This is the first 3G network in Europe to go live, and extras on the UKCompass site include navigable town plans and colour images of many entries.
