Although the two terms are now used interchangeably, their original meanings were quite distinct:
Cordless - without the need for a power cord i.e. a device with its own power supply and not connected to the mains.
Wireless - able to transmit/communicate without wires by the use of a form of energy such as radio waves, infrared, ultrasonic, etc.
By these definitions you can see that many devices are both wireless and cordless.
