REST Service endpoint does not support JSON

In the topic REST Web Services in Sybase Unwired WorkSpace - Mobile Business Object Development the statement:

"Supports resources with multiple representations (Transfer XML, JavaScript Object notation(JSON), or both)"

is not correct. The REST Service endpoint does not support JSON, so resources with multiple representations are not supported.
