WAP is comparable to HTML so if we are talking about developing applications J2ME is the way to go.

WAP is a markup language. J2ME is a complete programming environment. J2ME can generate WAP, but since WAP can't do logic, the reverse isn't true.

Plus, WAP was designed for phones with limited display resources. These days, chances are that there's a full-blown web browser in the device (assuming you don't think you need Flash to be "full-blown"). So for markup, you might need HTML, not WAP.

Education won't help those who are proudly and willfully ignorant. They'll literally rather die before changing.

If you two don't stop this rough-housing somebody is going to end up crying. Sit down and read this tiny ad:
