 alphaWorks : Wireless technology : New to Wireless technology
Wireless computing is computing without wires and phone lines by using a variety of devices such as laptop and notebook computers, tablets, personal digital assistants (PDAs), e-mail-only devices, handheld computers, and "wearable" technology.
Wireless technology's major benefit to users is the immediate access it offers to computing resources such as their office, other businesses, or the Internet; in this way, users are given a higher degree of flexibility in work and entertainment choices.
As a method of data transport, wireless technology is like wired technologies in that it comprises hardware devices, a method of transmission, and connections that transform data from the human-input type to a machine-transferable format, and then back again.

 Delivering the World Wide Web on Wireless: Wireless Application Protocol
Because wireless data communication is so slow compared to fixed-line communications, WAP must try to squeeze as much data as possible over the low bandwidth available to it, which it does by, for instance, compiling WML pages instead of sending them in raw form.
WML is transmitted in compressed form as binary data so as to make the most efficient use of the low bandwidth allocated to it.
As with most areas of the WAP protocol, WML was created as a compromise between the already existing markup languages being produced by various interested parties.
