• NOTES ON WIRELESS INTERNET ACCESS

This section gives a brief overview of wireless Internet access and provides some notes that may be useful in understanding wireless access.

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.
