Talk to any south Texan who has Internet access on their cell phone or PDA and you’ll hear the same story: “Why can’t I get any local news or sports?”
This just in: Now you can! Whether you’re in the office, on your boat at the lake, in a meeting, at the ball game, between classes, shopping, hanging around San Antonio, San Francisco, Niagara Falls, or almost any point in between – you can stay connected to San Antonio through woai.com wireless, from News 4 WOAI and 1200 WOAI.
Quick downloads and easy access
woai.com wireless is a specially designed version of the award-winning woai.com website, featuring local San Antonio information that downloads quickly and easily to wireless handsets and PDA’s. Accessing woai.com wireless is easy; simply point your wireless browser to wap.woai.com (there’s no need to enter http:// on most cell phone or PDA browsers).
Get the local content you want when you want it
From the home page on wap.woai.com, users can select between 6 main content sections: news, weather, SpursZONE, sports scores, stocks, and local polls. Click on any of these selections to get more local information. Let’s focus on weather for example. Once you select weather, you can then choose from current conditions, the forecast, or search weather forecasts by zip code or by city - no matter where you are. If news is more your thing, you can get local San Antonio news, state, national, and world news – all by simply pushing a button on your keypad. It’s that easy.
The best things in life are free
If you subscribe to your wireless provider’s Internet access service, then you can get woai.com. And just like the full version woai.com website, there are no fees, no registration requirements, and you will not be required to enter any personal information.
Who can use woai.com wireless?
Anyone who has Internet access through their cell phone or PDA can use woai.com wireless. When you travel, woai.com wireless is a great way to stay connected to San Antonio no matter where you go. Sports fans will love checking out the SpursZONE, sports scores, and game schedules. Imagine needing the latest weather forecast while you’re in your boat or on a road trip. Punch a couple of buttons and you’ve got it. Stuck in a meeting and want to know how your stocks are doing? Easy - punch in your stock symbol and you’re good to go!
Won’t downloads take a long time?
Not at all! wap.woai.com is specially designed for wireless handsets and cell phones. There are no large graphics, pop-up ads, or audio files to slow you down.
What’s this “wap” stuff all about?
“wap” is an acronym for Wireless Application Protocol. When you direct your handset to wap.woai.com, you are accessing the specially designed woai.com wireless site.
How do you get started?
Talk to your wireless provider today!
This is sweet.
Anyone who tries this, I'd like some feedback as to what you think.
Your help is appreciated.

I added it to my bookmarks. I love the access. As I use it more, I'll post my thoughts. So far, so good.
I will check it out later I am still on hold to talk to Jeff vexler
"Shake some Dust"
using my PDA the article's text is in the wrong (too big) font size, which makes it hard to read. It appears to be same size as les. Only two to threee words per line. Other than that it seems ok. Mainly text based.
I checked it using my Sanyo 8100 cell phone earlier today and it seemed to load pretty fast. All text, but that's what you need on a phone.
I'll try it via my PDA in a few.
The same thing on my PDA. Whatever's on the page is posted in very large font and then repeated at the bottom of the page in a standard size font.
