Technology background
A technology called Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) is to mobile devices
what the World Wide Web (WWW) is to desktop computers. The mobile
community began developing WAP several years ago to provide access to
the Internet for mobile users.
Today, most WAP sites consist of text and hyperlinks, and some sites can
accept text input. Some pages even contain low-resolution graphics. Your
service provider and others are free to design WAP sites as they choose,
so the sites are as variable as Web pages on the Internet.
