Professional Wap (Programmer to Programmer)

Yet another excellent publication that I would like to recommend. Professional WAP presented by Wrox publications (ISBN 1-861004-04-4). This book has become my number one (and possibly only) source for this wireless and mobile internet protocol.

"2000 is the year of the wireless web. The advent of a technology that allows us to access Internet content and services via mobile phone is revolutionizing the way we think about computing. WAP is the first step along this road, and with the advantages that m-commerce and 24-7 accessibility can bring, developers will need to get to grips with this new technology in order to stay one step ahead." --Professional WAP

Although the mention and idea of WAP is completely new to me, with a little assistance from this book, I've been able to understand that the quote above will hold solid. One could almost summarize the technology as one giant “Money making machine" for both consumers and the industry market. It will give us the power of the Internet via mobile phones and PDAs to have all that one could need in a pocket sized device. (read less)
