Network Magazine editor Andy Dornan reviews all the latest developments, from WAP and Bluetooth to wireless LANs and Internet satellite services, and beyond. The book includes detailed, up-to-date coverage of cellular, PCS, third-generation systems, and their applications -- including real-world guidance on purchasing cell phones and service for business. Dornan takes an in-depth look at WAP-based mobile data services, gateways, and servers, and walks you step-by-step through WAP-enabling your Web site. He reviews the state-of-the-art in mobile commerce, including security, payment systems, and the coming battle between mobile operators and content providers over "who owns the customer." The book includes detailed comparisons of mobile OSes, including Palm, Windows CE, and Symbian's EPOC; an extensive overview of private wireless LANs and Bluetooth Personal Area Networks (PANs); coverage of Internet access via satellite, and more.
