I'm not sure, from this message, exactly what you want. Your subject 
line talks about the WAP client, which hasn't been developed on for a 
while now. Although it can be resurrected if there is demand, it 
wouldn't be quite that easy to integrate into your WAP site - it's 
written with Java servlets, so you'd probably have to run a separate 
daemon (Jakarta Tomcat or some such) to host that if you wanted to run 
it yourself. I'd be happy to help out with that if you wanted, though.
Be aware, of course, that the WAP client on its own is not sufficient - 
it is also necessary to have an EB core running.

There's also EBME, the mobile client which runs locally on the device, 
written in J2ME (which is what your "JAR and JAD" comment indicated). 
It communicates with the EB core via a gateway daemon which speaks a 
simpler, less powerful but considerably lower-bandwidth protocol to the 
client device, and full-size GUIcomms to the core. So, with EBME, not 
only do you need an EB core, you also need the EBME server daemon 
running on a gateway machine. Both are available in Subversion, and I 
have prebuilt (but now somewhat outdated) binaries of the client if you 
want.
