Definición

  • Handheld devices, also known as mobile devices or simply as handhelds, are portable electronic tools that provide wireless access to one or more communication networks. Although the term can refer to small devices that simply receive information (e.g., most global positioning systems and satellite radios), it primarily refers to devices that provide for the two-way movement of data between the end user and other handheld users and the Internet.
