Abstract
This chapter describes the situation around the year 2005. The introduction of 2G GSM (2nd generation Global System for Mobile Communication) has triggered quite a boom for this wireless type of communication. If the possession of car telephones or similar mobile-type telephones was the prerogative of mostly special circles of people at the beginning of the nineties, at least every second person had his own personal mobile telephone by the end of the nineties and in most cases it was used only either for telephoning or for sending and receiving short messages - SMS - until then. By then, however, people also wanted to be able to send and receive data via a mobile telephone, e.g. from a PC.
