This paper introduces an access network independent mobile service control protocol. After providing a brief overview of the current Internet access techniques, it summarizes the most common application protocols of the Internet based on TCP. Therefore, these application protocols get differentiated in protocols with and without state and the possibilities of proxies for them is evaluated. Based on the results thereof and a scenario of a mobile user accessing Internet services using Bluetooth equipped handheld devices, a new protocol is introduced which allows mobility, supports devices with limited resources, such as smart phones and PDAs and keeps the existing TCP/UDP socket interface to avoid modifications of client side applications.
