Dear Sirs:

                  We have acted as counsel for World Wide Wireless
Communication, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the "Company"), in connection with
the registration statement on Form S-8 being filed by the Company under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, with respect to 30,000,000 shares (the
"Shares") of the Company's common stock, $.001 par value (the "Common Stock"),
which may be issued by the Company pursuant to the Company's 2002 Stock
Compensation Plan (the "Plan").

                  In connection with such registration statement, we have
examined such records and documents and such questions of law as we have deemed
appropriate for purposes of this opinion. On the basis of such examination, we
advise you that in our opinion the Shares have been duly and validly authorized
and, when issued in accordance with the terms of the Plan, will be validly
issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

         We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the
foregoing registration statement.

                                            Very truly yours,
