Mobile computing refers to the use of small and portable computing devices in wireless enabled networks that provide wireless connections to a central main server. These devices include laptops, notebook PCs, tablet PCs, palmtops, personal digital assistant (PDAs) and other hand held devices. A radio-signaling device is installed inside these devices for receiving and transmitting electronic data.
The mobile computing industry consists of all entities that play a role in enabling wireless connectivity. It includes manufacturers of mobile computing devices who produce different items such as laptops, notebook PCs, tablet PCs, palmtops, personal digital assistant (PDAs) and other hand held devices.
Wi-Fi gives freedom from wires and at the same time \"mobility\". Neither there is need to check those loose telephone connections nor worry to stay within the given length of your telephone wire; Wi-Fi enabled laptops and PDAs connect automatically to net once they enter a Wi-Fi Hotspot. In most of the developing countries, Wi-Fi is bringing broadband connection to the masses at free of cost. What else one can ask for? Kudos to the Wi-Fi concept.
Differences between Wi-Fi and WiMax. WiMax (MAN) provides last mile high speed internet access to the end user; whereas Wi-Fi provides Wireless LAN environment.
