Openwave WAP Push Library is a collection of tools that allow wireless application developers to easily author and test services that use the powerful features of the Push Proxy Gateway included in Openwave® Mobile Access Gateway 5.0.
Example: A major sporting event automatically sends the latest scores of a particular match with a link to get detailed results, team profiles, downloadable team ring tones and images, and also allows the subscriber to purchase match tickets for future games.

The WAP Push Library
The WAP Push Library abstracts the complexity of the Push Access Protocol (PAP) defined by the WAP forum, and makes the development and test of push-based applications easy.
WAP Push Library and the Developer
The comprehensive Java library simplifies development of push applications and allows developers to take full advantage of the rich features of the WAP Push specification. The GUI-based PushIT tool allows developers to quickly learn about and test the different types of push messages and PAP parameters.
WAP Push Library and the End User
Faster application development means that end users will more quickly have access to a rich set of push-enabled applications that enhance their lives with richer information, one-click access to applications and content associated with alerts, and innovative multi-user games and messaging applications.
WAP Push Library and Carriers
Improved developer productivity means faster time-to-market of compelling push-enabled applications. As subscribers benefit with more convenient consumer applications, carriers have expanded revenue opportunities by providing more valuable services, resulting in higher ARPU and improved subscriber retention.
