Wap, Wap , Wap - NOT!
Wireless information systems is not only Wap. It really is designing anything optimized for viewing on a cellphone. If you need a good, high-level overview of wireless information systems, this is the book. I can't realy recommend it for most technicians, as the market aspects may be too overwhelming and the basic concepts too daunting. But it is a very good guide guide on how to design sites and other services to take advantage of the mobile market.

"Liberating Information from Its...Logical Location?"
A professional web developer, I expected, based on the description of this book, a practical guide to redeploying a client web site as a wireless application. Anything but a practical guide, this book presents nearly 400 pages of design philosophy, with tidbits of information scattered throughout. I've read the book, and I am no closer to finishing my project. This was a waste of my time and money.

this is going to be big
Overall, I think this covers the essentials of wireless. Since the wireless revolution will definately be bigger than the internet revolution, this book helps you to understand how to develop your wireless strategy from design phase to implementation.
