It is WAP over CSD (Circuit Switched Data, also know as GSM data) that is charged for per second/minute.

You can also surf with WAP over GPRS (General Packet Radio Service), but unlike CSD which is time based reserves a phone line connection (like dial-up) GPRS is quantity based in that data is sent in packets and you are only charged for the packets you send/receive (in KB).
