Offering AT&T Yahoo! Go Mobile service on the Nokia 6682, access is also available to the built-in email, messaging, address book and calendar applications on the phone. For example, if a user loses his mobile device, his saved contact information will still be available to him on the Web and easily synched with a new cell phone.

For AT&T, this new application supports an initiative by the company to integrate AT&T services and content across the three screens that many consumers value most today: the PC, the cell phone and the TV. For Yahoo!, this new service is part of a suite of innovative applications designed to extend the reach of Yahoo!'s services beyond the browser.

This is going to be interesting with the Motorola / Google deal. It seems search engines are noticing mobile search is the way of the future.

I have been using Cingular since Sept, and yes, u can use Yahoo on Motorola v3 phones... but check the data usage on your account before using it. First thing, Cingular does not display correct info on its website, and for minutes usage, watch out, its not the real time data, their real time data according to them is 3 days old, can u imagine that !! , they are living in old ages!!
