Why does WAP2 strip out meta-tags and some header information?
===

I was looking at some WAP2 ([Wireless Application Protocol][2]) pages and realised that meta-tags get stripped from the header along with some other stuff. If you view source for [this page][1] for example, you could see there are no meta-tags in the header.

I looked at the [WAP page on Wikipedia][2] hoping to find something, but I was not able to. Do anyone know why this happens? I'm assuming it's to do with the user-agent or consumer, but a technical explanation would be great.
