I was charged 196 minutes for "internet express" on my cell phone..Can you tell me what "internet express is?

Question

Cingular is my cell phone service...This is the first time I've ever had this charge, on my statement...They must be charging me a penny a minute cause for 196 minutes, I was charged $1.96..I haven't a clue what these charges were for...I couldn't have used my quota of 400 minutes a month plus the roll overs, so it can't be related to that.....I can call Cingular on Monday and will probably get an answer but I'd really like to know before then....
