Last time I spoke to Openwave about this issue (admittedly, about 1.5 years 
ago) the official position was "We only deal with tier-1 networks or ISPs, 
and would prefer that the Openwave specifications remain closed, since one 
of the products we sell for $$$ is an Openwave-format OTA configuration 
system" (or something like that).

Someone out there may have been able to capture an OW-format SMS in a GSM 
modem, or you may be able to trick an operator in to giving you the 
specifications.

See 
http://www.openwave.com/products/mobile_services/provisioning_manager/mobile/ 
 for the info on their product.

FWIW, I think that from reading between the lines of what the above product 
does, one reason that they might not be releasing the info is that you can 
do far more that simply configure WAP data connections using it - it could 
be an, err... "interesting" protocol to get hold of and play with.
