An amature's review of WAP Integration
26 Nov 2001
Format:Paperback
I am a retired executive and have started my own consulting business recently.The new world of Wireless Internet has intrigued me for some time but knowing nothing about it I was reluctant to get too far on my own until just last week I got a copy of the book "WAP Integration" by Srdjan Vujosevic and Robert Laberge.
The book is very imressive in that the subject matters are well organized, the writting style is easy to read and understand and at times fun , yet contains a wealth of information covering topics for those who are amatures (like me)all the way to the more professional and knowledgeble people whose daily life is programming or creating new application protocols.
I am able to recommend the book as a "five star" product based on my limited know how of this exciting and upcoming new technology.
I am now "technically" competent enough to send e-mails through my wireless (but Internet capable) phone, and understand some of the technical concepts which were very hazy at best when I started into the book.
I especially like the info provided in "Related Sites" enabling the reader to further enhance their knowledge in any particular focused area.
