Audi now offers WAP service

Ingolstadt (ots)

AUDI AG is now offering its own Internet
information service for mobile phones - the first German car
manufacturer to do so. This service, known as WAP (Wireless
Application Protocol), can be called up at the address
http://wap.audi.de
from WAP-compatible mobiles. Here, mobile phone users can find out
the latest company news and highlights. It is also possible to search
for all Audi dealers throughout Germany. Users will soon be able to
dial up the Audi pre-owned car database by mobile phone.
The WAP services "News" and "Highlights" are adapted to the
special features of WAP mobiles. The information which appears in the
mobile phone display is brief and clearly organised.
It is now also possible to search for the nearest Audi dealer by
mobile phone: the user defines his or her search with the parameters
postcode or city and, in return, receives the address and the
telephone number of the required Audi dealer in the vicinity.
Audi will soon also be offering its extensive pre-owned car
database in WAP format. Potential owners will then be able to use
their mobile to find just the Audi they are looking for - all in
their own good time, perhaps even while taking a stroll through the
woods.
Audi is an international developer and manufacturer of
high-quality cars. The company maintains production sites in Germany,
