A superior Yahoo! Mail for mobiles
EARLY this morning, an entirely new interface greeted me when I checked my Yahoo! email account using my mobile phone.
Unable to get a high-res photo, I had to install this wmlbrowser extension for Firefox to reproduce how Y!Mail in beta now handles its email messages.
This means I can now access Y!Mail, and its unlimited storage, using the interface's superior layout. This puts Yahoo! a step ahead in terms of ease of use and accessibility, Neerav's Gmail-Mobile service notwithstanding.
An added bonus is its capability to store my login details, propelling me straight to my Inbox everytime I visit the site. Enabling me to skip the login page -- which can be quite cumbersome, especially with my LG KU250's rather tight keypad -- is a big relief.
This development fits in nicely with my approach to email management: Gmail remains my primary email address, but my Yahoo account, and its superior email interface, will be most convenient for my group emails.
More and more, I now access my emails using my mobile. In fact, my WAP usage for this month (at P390) is already higher than my voice (at P330 for both local and NDD calls) and SMS. But I wonder when I will be able to do the same with my Hotmail account.

Mr. Prilles,
gmail-mobile has been secretly testing a no-password, no-PIN signin feature for the past few weeks that you may be interested in. It works on all mobiles and all networks, since it does not require cookie support. In addition, bookmarks can be saved to easily access multiple accounts.
Email me from the Gmail account you want to start with, and I will add you to the merry band of alpha/beta testers.
