While Internet access has been possible in the past, different manufacturers have used different technologies. In the future, devices and service systems that use WAP will be able to interoperate.The WAP layers are: Wireless Application Environment (WAE)Wireless Session Layer (WSL)Wireless Transport Layer Security (WTLS)Wireless Transport Layer (WTP)The WAP was conceived by four companies: Ericsson, Motorola, Nokia, and Unwired Planet (now Phone.com). The Wireless Markup Language (WML) is used to create pages that can be delivered using WAP. There are other approaches to an industry standard besides WAP, including i-Mode.
