Google, Yahoo unveil cell phone services
The handset market is getting interesting with Google and Yahoo rolling out services to provide features similar to computers on mobile phones.
"SBC executives said the SBC-Yahoo phone, which will be manufactured by Nokia Corp, is expected to be available early next year and will cost 200-300 usd, The Journal said.
"Google is tailoring some of its services for use on wireless devices and starting today users of more than 100 types of mobile phones can access Google's map database."
The question is the uptake by consumers, however, I can foresee that Google Maps could be quite a demanded service - however, how will governments react to this kind of offering is another question.
