Download content through wap using a midlet

Question

Ok, lets make it quick.
my java ME app:
CLDC 1.1
MIDP 2.0
It downloads 4 images from four URLs. The images are served by an Apache server, http://some.site/image0.png.
Here is how i do it
private Image getImage(int zoomLevel) throws IOException, Exception {
        ContentConnection connection = (ContentConnection) Connector.open(baseUrl + "/" + String.valueOf(zoomLevel));
        // * There is a bug in MIDP 1.0.3 in which read() sometimes returns
        //   an invalid length. To work around this, I have changed the
        //   stream to DataInputStream and called readFully() instead of read()
//    InputStream iStrm = connection.openInputStream();
        DataInputStream iStrm = connection.openDataInputStream();
        ByteArrayOutputStream bStrm = null;
        Image im = null;
        try {
            // ContentConnection includes a length method
            byte imageData[];
            int length = (int) connection.getLength();
            if (length != -1) {
                imageData = new byte[length];
                // Read the png into an array
              //  iStrm.read(imageData);
               iStrm.readFully(imageData);
            } else // Length not available...
                bStrm = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
                int ch;
                while ((ch = iStrm.read()) != -1) {
                    bStrm.write(ch);
                imageData = bStrm.toByteArray();
                bStrm.close();
            // Create the image from the byte array
            im = Image.createImage(imageData, 0, imageData.length);
        } finally {
            // Clean up
            if (iStrm != null) {
                iStrm.close();
            if (connection != null) {
                connection.close();
            if (bStrm != null) {
                bStrm.close();
        if (im == null) {
            throw new Exception("Unable to download image");
        } else {
            return im;
    }This works in the emulator.
The problem is that my Internet provider does not allow network traffic other than viewing wap pages.
Is there a way to trick my provider and download the images? Perhaps to set up a dummy wap page?
thanks,

I did reset but I'm all up to date with my subscribe download using an earlier wire to iTunes on my MacBook, so I really can't tell right now.  I'll give it a couple days and then try to download again wirelessly.
Thanks for trying.  I'll let you know.
