Using my pc as if it was a mobile for WAP browsing

Is there any software that can do this? I want to do WAP browsing and running apps on my p.c as if it was a mobile phone. I can access the WAP site using my p.c with WinWap but obviously I don't have the functionality of a mobile.

    There are a few tools that'll do this. WAP Emulators. If you check the Gambling forum here, there'll be one mentioned as it's used for mobile-only bonus offers.

    Thanks weegie.geek. The only problem is that the emulator they mention there http://mtld.mobi/emulator.php is a web emulator which can't download the app- I can only surf the site. I need an emulator that actually functions like the mobile and can download things.

    Ah, I see. What is it you're trying to do, btw? There's probably an easier way of doing it.

    Assuming there are actual mobile phone emulators out there, you'll have to find a specific one, different phones have different operating systems and use different apps. You'll have to work out what phones are compatible with the app you want to use, and find an emulator for that.

    You're probably going to want to find an SDK for that particular phone, for example: Nokia S40.

    Thanks. I want to play mobile phone poker/casinos through my p.c. It doesn't have to be a specific phone, the software works on most reasonably modern phones.
