Who Are You?
You're probably reading this book because you're excited about building wireless applications with Java. This book is aimed at people who already have experience programming in Java. At a minimum, you should understand the Java programming language and the fundamentals of object oriented programming. Some chapters delve into subjects that themselves could occupy entire books. These chapters include suggested reading if you want to come up to speed on a particular subject.
If you are unfamiliar with Java, I suggest you read an introductory book or take a course. Learning Java (O'Reilly 2000) is a good introduction to Java for programmers who are already experienced in another language such as C or C++.
