I have just deleted my device out of yahoo mobile since I won’t need it that much anymore anyway, for I switched another chip on my phone. But it was really good service from Yahoo! oneSearch™ on mobile, redefining how you use the phone to get info on the go, find just the answers you need with fewer clicks. Yahoo Inc. will provide mobile search services to nine more cell phone operators in Asia, the new partnerships include mobile operators in India, Malaysia, Indonesia, Hong Kong and Singapore. The company already has seven partnerships the region, including in South Korea, Taiwan and the Philippines. The latest deals bring Yahoo’s total worldwide distribution partnerships to 20 mobile operators in 19 countries. Yahoo’s announcements come the week after larger rival Google Inc. said it is developing a free mobile software package that will be available in the second half of next year. Called “Android,” Google’s mobile software is designed to make it easier to use the Web over cell phones and other mobile gadgets.
