This book addresses the market demand of novice .NET programmers to learn about, and build, networked applications - a subject very often omitted from traditional computer programming books. The book brings cutting-edge technologies such as GPS communication, Bluetooth and Radio Frequency ID (RFID) within reach of the mass-market. The .NET 2.0 Framework and .NET 2.0 Compact Framework provide a number of APIs for communicating through these technologies and this book demonstrates these in the form of a number of practical projects that readers can undertake to build their own network additions.

From the reviews:
The book's six chapters provide insight into programming with networked devices. ... All in all, this could be a useful book for a high school student seeking a computer-based science project. Once the basic devices are operating, an industrious student or hobbyist could extend the project in order to incorporate additional operational features. The illustrations are clear, and an index is provided. (J. S. Edwards, ACM Computing Reviews, Vol. 49 (8), August, 2008)
