Mobile Internet on your CDMA mobile
You can do much more than make calls and send text messages with a Telecom CDMA WAP (internet) capable mobile.
How do I get it?
It's easy. Just open the WAP browser on your Telecom CDMA mobile and scroll through the menus to find the service you want.
If you have a CDMA Smartphone then you won't have access to the WAP menu to access Xtra Mobile Internet Services - your mobile will access the internet directly. CDMA Smartphones include all CDMA BlackBerrys, and CDMA Windows Mobile® operating devices.
The price of Mobile Internet on my CDMA mobile is ...
It's free to browse the Xtra WAP menus on your CDMA mobile. You only start paying when you leave those menus and begin to use services such as email or the internet, or enter an application, such as a WAP game.
On CDMA WAP capable mobiles:
- All content marked with an "*" will cost 35c (incl GST) to read that page or perform that particular task. For example when you read a specific news article on your CDMA mobile phone
- All content outside the Xtra WAP menu will cost 1c per KB
- All WAP games are 7c per page (excluding downloadable Java games)
- All WAP Chat services are 7c per page or refresh (pages auto refresh every 15 seconds)
- Some services, like downloading ringtones or sending Picture Messages have differing costs. When this happens you will get a message on your mobile telling you how much they cost so you can choose to continue before downloading or sending them
CDMA Smartphones are charged according to the mobile broadband plan that you are on, or if you haven't chosen a specific plan, then the casual mobile broadband rate of $9.20 per MB is charged for all mobile data you access (mobile data used is rounded up to the nearest 10KB packet for billing).
