Summary: Good book about useless technologie
Review: Hi, fellows ! The book is really easy to read, i agree with previous reader. And who still thinks, that this is a good technologie, i will recommend it. There are practical all things, what you need to develop a WAP solution.

But, what about is this book ? About WAP - technological useless solution for wide marketing actions. Dear fellows, WAP is out, and there is no back for this technologie. Just wait a little bit the new UMTS system and we will se, what technologie will bring with itself.

If you think in your enterprice about this solution - forget it. And finaly don't buy this one, you can cabbage some money for beer or another book.

Summary: Complete!
Review: I love this book. It's complete, goes right into the details and is clearly written. I cannot think of a higher compliment to pay a book or author. If you're a WAP developer or are ramping up for a WAP development project this book will get you there. I loved the treatment of WML, deploying services and wireless telephony applications. I highly recommend this book.

Summary: Not Staight Forward
Review: This book is complete. To the best of my knowledge it is the most complete book you can find. The only problem I see with this book is that, the author spend too much time explaining the background of the WAP protocol. Personally I care less about the historical side view.

Summary: Easy to read
Review: Whether you love it or hate it - WAP is here to stay. For many it is a necessary engineering pothole to fill. This book is a clearly written guide and reference. Of all my WAP books, this sits in easiest reach. The writing is solid, the topics up to date, and the subject is comprehensive. It is also a cohesive engineering view of WAP elements. I would strongly recommend this as a teaching text as well. The book takes you from the very beginning and moves cohesively into the advanced subjects of WML and WAP. A true resource for those of us that need to support the web phone market.
