Mobile Searching

Yahoo goes mobile with searching enabled for WAP phones.

Google SMS already operating allows users to conduct targeted searches - such as for local business etc - through text messages.
Yahoo's offering is a richer experience for users with colour and graphics including maps and driving directions. Images can even be saved on the phone.

Yahoo Search for Mobile is only available in the United States. Mobile carriers Cingular Wireless, Sprint PCS and AT&T Wireless have added it into their data services. Other users can access it by typing search.yahoo.com or mobile.yahoo.com into their mobile browsers.
