Quite good
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
A nice book, pretty thorough. Examples were consistent across sections, lots of images and code are helpful. Covers database access and ASP/Java through WAP. Probably the one to keep on the shelf if you are like me and are one of the few actually doing WAP development.
The most comprehensive

This is the ONLY book I've been able to find that covers all aspects of mobile development. That it covers HDML and voiceXML is quite nice. There are sections on migrating HDML to WML, and on designing mobile applications, also very helpful. For my money, this is the WAP book to own. The cover certainly is goofy, though :-).
Well written, accurate and comprehensive

My development team is just beginning to work with mobile applications, and I've looked through many of the books on the topic that are available -- this is the best by far. Especially nice is that this book covers a lot of topics *beyond* WAP -- particularly useful is the section on HDML, the markup language the preceded WAP but is still found everywhere. It even includes a section on Voice XML (which has nothing to do with WAP at all) but it was a nice addition.My only nit-pick is that in some cases the authors tried too hard to be beginner-friendly (is it really necessary to inform the reader that a variable is "a container that holds a piece of information that can change." In spite of this one complaint, the book is useful for beginners and experienced developers alike, has a lot of screen shots and code examples, and provides a broad scope of information.
