As part of the agreement, Motorola will pre-load the Yahoo service on handsets worldwide starting in the first half of 2007.
Consumers are no longer tethered to just accessing Internet on their desktop computer, so we are bringing the best of Yahoo!’s services to the device they always have with them and use multiple times every day – their mobile phone, said Marco Boerries, SVP, Connected Life, Yahoo!. Together, Yahoo! and Motorola are making it easier than ever before for consumers to seamlessly access their favorite web services, information and content across both their personal computer and mobile phone.
Motorola and Yahoo announced their partnership in July 2005. The companies will jointly market the Motorola devices with Yahoo! Go for Mobile pre-installed through their online networks, device packaging and other targeted channels.
