Yahoo!’s mobile client, GO, is now available (beta) on the Samsung i607 aka Cingular Blackjack.
Go here to enter your mobile number, and they SMS you a link to download the CAB file.
Once you download and install the CAB file, at first launch it downloads a bunch of other stuff – perhaps it is keeping track of versions of specific apps?
It’s got a series of modules, many of which take advantage of your Yahoo! ID:
- Flickr, including browsing your contact’s photos
- Mail, assuming you use Yahoo Mail
- Local and Maps
- News
- Sports
- Entertainment
- Weather
It’s very nicely designed, once you get used to the Yahoo! purple, but I don’t see it replacing Google Maps on my phone any time soon. It does give a nice flickr interface and since you can set up news watchlists could be a good way to read mainstream news.
