1.0 out of 5 stars Almost useless, April 27, 2006
This review is from: Symbian OS Communications Programming (Symbian Press) (Paperback)
Considering how features of a phone can vary from model to model or production run to production this book really doesn't address how manufacturers implement comms on a phone. Maybe Bluetooth basics is decent, but the rest? You're better off at forum.nokia.com or www.newlc.com forums to get things working. I really never found anything in this book that helped me. For instance, IrDA programming. The whole section is IrDA basics, I don't want the basics! I want to know the silly stuff Symbian does.......

2.0 out of 5 stars Don't bother if Windows is a client, June 13, 2003

This review is from: Symbian OS Communications Programming (Symbian Press) (Paperback)
This book may be of value if you are trying to get two Symbian devices to communicate. But if you need to communidate with another OS, it is sorely lacking.

The book leaves out very critical info on using RNetDatabase in order to be discovered. It also glosses over actual data exchange not realizing that RecvOneOrMore() is not supported on some devices.

As bad as the Symbian SDK documentation is, this book does nothing to add to it.

Don't waste your money.
