NOTES ON WIRELESS INTERNET ACCESS
This section gives a brief overview of wireless Internet technology.
Technology background
A technology called Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) is to mobile
devices what the World Wide Web (WWW) is to personal computers.
The mobile community began developing WAP several years ago to
provide access to the Internet for mobile users.
Most WAP sites are made up of text and hyperlinks. Some pages even
contain low-resolution graphics, or require data input. 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 world wide web.
Internet content on your personal computer is called a web page. Internet
content on your mobile phone is called a page or card.
With your multimode browser you can view the services that use Wireless
Mark-Up Language (WML) or extensible Hyper Text Mark-up Language
(xHTML). Since the phone display and memory capacity are much smaller
than in a computer, Internet content is displayed differently. You may not
be able to view all the details on some Internet pages.
