I have been getting some strange text messages on my phone, at first i didnt even know what they were but after a dig through the manual i discovered they were Wap Push messages.

I have now turned on the feature to disallow these messages, but i wanted to know if i was likely to be charged for these messages (im on T-Mobile BTW) and if - even though they are now set to be disallowed - wether i can still be charged for them even though they are turned off?

Heck - if you could even tell me what they are that would be a start - it seems like its some sort of URL parser for your phones built in browser but im not 100%.

I cant even tell where they come from as no number shows up.

Any ideas?
