You can use any source code editor to create WML programs. The real
question is: can you execute WML programs on small, handheld devices
other than cell phones with embedded WML-compatible microbrowsers.
There is at least one freeware WML browser that runs on Palm devices.
Check PalmGear for specifics.

WML is device independent. What matters is the same question as
above: is there a microbrowser that runs on the platform you're
interested in? Secondarily, do you have any way of creating a
wireless connection between the device and the WML-based web site of
interest? For the Palm platform, the answer is a definitely
yes--Novatel Minstrel modems and CDPD coverage do the trick. There
are probably other methods as well.
For WML-related information, check the WAP Forum web site:
www.wapforum.org. You can also find a lot of details at the phone.com
web site (www.phone.com), and the Nokia and Ericcson web sites as
well.
