N2  - "Mobile .NET" begins by educating the reader about a wide variety of different wireless Internet devices. These devices are divided into two main categories: those that are directly supported by .NET, including Pocket PCs, i-Mode phones, and WAP devices, and those that are not, including Palm OS and J2ME-powered devices. Author Ferguson shows developers how to make .NET work equally well with all of these devices
