Yahoo Go Go Goes Primetime with 2.0 improvements
New and improved, and ready to download today! Get ready to get your mobile application on because Yahoo just launched a new version of Go that brings users faster speeds, calendar and address books, better email, and more powerful maps. Yahoo Go 2.0 has reduced data loading times which is not only good on your time, but also great on your data plan if you aren't on the unlimited. Some new tools to help in your day to day time management include the calendar and address book options. The address book even has 1 click to call functionality. As far as email is concerned, common attachments can now be viewed, including images, word, excel and pdf's. When you're on the go, mobile maps are a great feature. Yahoo had tied in GPS integration for select devices, which is going to be a great tool not only for local users, but for people who travel frequently.
We took a look at what Yahoo offered with Go Mobile when it first came out, and it still looks like Yahoo holds the top spot for universal mobile applications. We have also had the chance to use a version of Yahoo Go 2.0 just before they added all these goodies in, and it were extremely impressed with what it brought to the table. Look out for a full review on the new Yahoo Go 2.0 coming shortly.

Ready to download? If you've got a Blackberry. Windows Mobile users are still waiting... and waiting... and waiting for their version. Yahoo promised it months ago, but still not even an ETA.

What about Palm OS users? I check the site all the time to see if there is any kind of update, and all I find is on again/off again recognition of my device. Sometimes it says a version is coming, others it says that they will not be supporting my device at all!?!
