Yahoo unveiled its own mobile web application service with the newly enhanced Yahoo Mobile. There are 3 major components under Yahoo Mobile is mobile web application, iPhone application and application designed for other smarphones such as Nokia, Blackberry and Windows Mobile powered smartphones.

Lied as the foundation of Yahoo Mobile is Yahoo OneSearch,  Yahoo oneConnect which consist of Yahoo’s own services such as email, Yahoo Messanger, Yahoo Calendar. Opera Mini, Yahoo Maps and Yahoo news are among others that will be bundled together with Yahoo Mobile.

What differentiate Yahoo from the rest of major search engines is,  Yahoo doesn’t built mobile phone platform or something that related to it. Unlike Google which has Android under its chest, and Microsoft’s Windows Mobile 6.5, which both are the backbone of smartphones nowadays, Yahoo has no such thing, which created huge gap with its rivals on this mobile platform.

What Yahoo tried to offer is already exist on most smarphones, which usually bundled and integrated together with the OS and ready to use.  So Yahoo Mobile  is seen here just like another  ’app’ or ‘add-ons’ that trying to fill the gap on the default applications currently lacking with.

But Yahoo Mobile might has slight advantage over its rival, when its applications is compatible to run all platforms. But at the end of the day, it depend on how good the application is, and the willingness of users to try and use the application.

Yahoo Mobile beta version is vailable for trial now.
