Now that Yahoo! has launched their own service for mobile phones, allowing you to get maps and directions and a slew of other info from you mobile, who do you plan on choosing?
Google or Yahoo!?
This is a pretty interesting time as google introduced their own sms service that is a great text based search tool for phones, and here comes Yahoo! with a huge leap in improvement. I know that with todays advanced phones, resolution, and speed, that Yahoo! is going in the right direction. Now it;s just a matter of cost from the carrier, because I wouldnt want to pay like $2 each time I want to get info about a place or find out where something is.
But then again, I could just use a smartphone that has wi-fi or internet access and get the same info essentially for free.
We’ll see how this pans out but I now wonder what MSN will do. I am sure they will find a way to put it into their pocket pc software.

A fellow treonaut got to spend an hour with the treo 650. You can read his impressions of the lovely device over at treonauts.
He was pleasantly surprised with the device and can’t wait to get it. The lack of SDIO support is still a deal killer for me as is the digital camera and small amount of usable memory. I mean, the main thing really for me was the SDIO support. WTF were they thinking? I know I said it before, but still… It’s like have you waited to so long for something, and dreamt about it, read about it, and got as much information about it that you could only to be disappointed? I mean, I know I shouldn’t have hoped so much for it to have SDIO support for a wi-fi card, but c’mon! I mean, C’MON! It’s a no brainer! But apparently it was and now I am without.
I am going to wait yet again for the next update to the treo line when they either add SDIO support or better yet, include wi-fi! By the time it comes out, they better support wi-fi max! And have a 3mp camera! hahaha
