Although there are countless numbers of applications that use XML, here are a few examples of the current platforms and applications that are making use of this technology:
Cell Phones - XML data is sent to some cell phones. The data is then formatted by the specification of the cell phone software designer to display text or images, and even to play sounds!
File Converters - Many applications have been written to convert existing documents into the XML standard. An example is a PDF to XML converter.
VoiceXML - Converts XML documents into an audio format so that you can listen to an XML document.
