How does MIDP work with WAP?
A. MIDP leverages existing browser-based technologies such as WAP or i-mode, and adds support for local, networked applications to mobile devices. A browser interface is convenient to access static content (news, sports scores) or display a list of applications and services, though it requires a permanent network connection. Java technology is more compelling for interactive and transaction-oriented applications and services (games, location based services, etc.) MIDP applications provide rich graphics and navigation. They are installed and run locally, can operate in both networked and disconnected mode, and have the ability to securely store and manage data locally for use by all applications.
