Y!Go 2.0 Review
| Thursday, August 9th, 2007 | --jr |
Ok, I admit that I've yet to really mess around with Y!Go on something other than a demo phone they had set up, but I'll admit that v.1 was pretty handy. Having all the big Yahoo services in one easy to use bundle was darn useful.
What's more, they're not resting while waiting for various carriers and handset makers to sign off on it, they're still making improvements, and folks seem to be pretty happy with it. Wanna see more? Check out the review over at Download Squad. Oh, and if you've got a WinMobile, Blackberry, Nokia, or any of the phones listed here, you can grab a copy now.
(Supposedly, a version for the Helio Ocean is also coming out soon, which will make me pretty happy.)

In many ways version 2 is better than 1, BUT V2 no longer supports syncing of calendar and contacts to the phone which is a MAJOR draw back. Now you have to connect to the internet each time you want to access your address book or events. Please bring back the syncing!

Huh. Wonder if it might be that too many phones didn’t support that. I’ll pass your comment on to the mobile folks. Thanks!

Yes, concur with WD — great interface, including addition of flickr. But not using local phone *plus* the inability (or perhaps ease in that I’m not finding it) to turn off certain syncing made me uninstall.
