Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This book is the most complete book I've seen on WAP -- it covers alot of topics that others books don't, such as WTA and Push. It also provides a great background on wireless and why WAP was developed (and why).
Most of all, the book teaches how to write content for all phones, not just a single one. This is difficult, as the book keeps pointing out, but it guides you through all the gotchas. The UI chapter is a big help too.
I highly recommend the book to anyone who wants to write great WAP content.

The Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) will liberate the Web from wires, enabling anywhere/anytime access to virtually any data or application. In this book, leaders of the WAP standards process present the most complete discussion of the new WAP 1.1 standards, architecture, specification, and application development. This book gives decision-makers the information they need to plan strategies, and developers the information they need to build solutions -- starting today. It begins with an overview of WAP 1.1, describing the motivation behind the standards, and the relationships between each component of the WAP specification. Next, it discusses each component, covering fundamental design principles and operations. The book delivers in-depth guidance for developing WAP applications, covering user interface design, push messaging, the XML-based Wireless Markup Language (WML), scripting with WMLScript and WTAI, and more.--This text refers to an alternate Hardcover edition.
