In an ideal world, all wireless devices would:

• Operate on all wireless networks
• Have a complete complement of peripherals
• Be useable with the required application
• Work while out of radio coverage
• Have the correct sized display
• Be rugged and stand up to the abuse of mobile use
• Be inexpensive

In practice, all of the above parameters do not exist today in a single device. Devices are built to run on specific wireless networks, not all devices have the same complement of peripherals and not all devices work with all applications etc. Therefore, as with most things in life, there are trade-offs that must be made when selecting the most practical wireless device for each given situation.
