WAP is a worldwide standard for providing Internet communications and advanced telephony services on digital mobile phones, pagers, personal digital assistants and other "smart" wireless terminals. The WAP Forum developed the protocol as a means of transferring information to mobile wireless devices using a standard interface and display format. A complete set of WAP specifications is available at the WAP Forum Web site listed on the related entries page.
