Marriott Mobile
I had a biz trip to DEN tonight - as soon as I got to DEN, I realized I forgot to print out the direction to the RI Denver Airport where I'll be staying for the next few days. I had my BlackBerry, so I figured I'd try to get onto Marriott.com to see if I could find the hotel webpage & get the directions.
Having never done this before, I was pleasantly surprised when I got redirected somehow to http://marriott.com/wireless/ - which is the WAP site for Marriott.com. It was very quick & I was able to quickly navigate to the hotel's page (first list by state, then city, then hotel) - within a few clicks, I was able to get the directions to the hotel with no problem.
I've now bookmarked the site on my BlackBerry & recommend that anyone who uses one when they travel to bookmark it too - great way to get the hotel street address & directions from the airport! You can't make reservations or any other functionalities or anything, but its still a good resource.

Darn, I have a trip through Mobile the week after next and am deciding where to stay the night. I saw the title and thought, great timing I can see what someone else thought. Oops. 
But on the bright side, if I get lost trying to find the Mobile Marriott, I now have a means to help me find it.
