 >>Jon, I wonder how WAP will fit into  Multicast apps - even 
 >>if its single line txt based msg's app ?
 
football scores/(tennis etc)

share price (look at stockbroker trading terminal - they have very
small amount of realestate for the given instrument)

many many things would work v. well  - iff you had full ip capability...

i guess you'd need an rtp mixer capability in the net for packet ip multiast as
mixing at the receiver might stress the limited capacity...although as
next generation rolls out, this might change too then ip voice
conferencing using multicast (which kind of maps well onto real shared
capacity channels anyhow) would be quite cute...

a lot of sip stuff would be v. cute too (a lot of fancy call handling
scripting things would be dead useful to be able to download onto the
phone.....).......

 cheers
