hi,
i have finally looked around for an answer to this, i hope it is still relevant -
in the specification document for the wireless markup language (wml) at http://www1.wapforum.org/tech/documents/SPEC-WML-19991104.pdf
it says in chapter 6 that wml is based on xml and therefore uses xml's document character set, which is unicode/iso 10646. the xml spec in turn specifies
the entire utf-16 range to be used. xml and wml allow to support and announce different charsets.
wml is the main format for web pages within the wap suite.
therefore, i venture to state "wap is unicode compliant."
for more details, please see http://www.wapforum.org/
