Launch of Yahoo! Mobile Photos
Yahoo! Inc. and AT&T Wireless have announced the launch of Yahoo!
Mobile Photos for AT&T Wireless mMode™ subscribers nationwide.
AT&T Wireless mMode customers can use the downloadable Yahoo!
Mobile Photos client application to view and share the pictures in
their Yahoo! Photos account while on the go.
The new Yahoo! Mobile Photos application is a full color, graphical
service that gives consumers a new, easy way to connect to their online
photos over the AT&T Wireless network. Consumers can now access
their Yahoo! Photos account, view saved pictures and create custom
wallpapers while on the go. The application is available across a

on their phones and create a personalized album and slideshow that
can be accessed without connecting to the Internet. The Yahoo! Mobile
Photos service is available from AT&T Wireless for $2.99 a month,
plus standard usage fees.
"We are excited to build on our successful relationship with
AT&T Wireless and offer consumers a new, engaging way to easily

Inc. "Yahoo! Photos is one of the leading online photos services
and the new Yahoo! Mobile Photos service extends the experience beyond
the PC to let consumers take Yahoo! with them and share their pictures
with friends and loved ones in new, exciting ways."
"AT&T Wireless and Yahoo! are now bridging online and mobile
photo applications, making it possible for our mMode customers to
access all their photos right from their phones," said Sam Hall,
vice president of mMode services, AT&T Wireless. "We're excited
to work with a leader like Yahoo! to add simplicity and convenience
into the exploding arena of photo and picture messaging applications."
