Well. As someone said - most people don't use the functions on their phones. I've played around various J2ME applications that most modern phones support and the possibilities are endless.
Take Smart phones - I had one once and I got a little FTP application running on it. I could take a photo, and ftp it to my website from anywhere, where I then had a php page that would display the most recent image - kinda like a travelling web cam. Using the same technology and uploading a text file you could update a blog, or if you're really clever, you can build a WAP admin page that allows you input direct to your MySQL database or whatever. If you dont like WAP, you can always download a "real" J2ME web browser and access your site direct.
Other things I've done are to use J2ME to build an RSS reader. You know what can be done with so I wont bore you with the details. I also have ported our Intranet to WAP for staff access client/internal contact details wherever they are....
