multi-access mobile Internet portal, http://wap.speedytomato.co.uk. The

effort. “This
is a significant success for Calaba as it demonstrates that Wapaw, the leading
wireless search and directory service, is an attractive product to wireless
portal operators who want to offer the widest choice of relevant content to
their customers,” said Eoin Licken, Business Development Manager for Calaba.
“Speedy Tomato’s end users are set to benefit from highly relevant,
customisable search and directory services, and can look forward to accessing
