Yahoo goes mobile in Germany By Reuters Special to CNET News.com July 8, 1999, 9:15 a.m. PT URL: news.com LONDON--Yahoo has joined forces with German mobile telephone operator Mannesmann Mobilfunk to deliver Internet services to telephone handsets. In a statement late yesterday, Yahoo said subscribers with a correctly enabled mobile phone would have quick and easy access to Yahoo Germany's Internet programming. Access would be free of charge except for the cost of the call. The agreement marks the first of Yahoo Europe's local ventures to use a delivery platform other than personal computers, the statement said. Mannesmann Mobilfunk is a joint venture between Mannesmann and U.S.-based AirTouch Communications, recently acquired by Britain's Vodafone Group. Yesterday Yahoo and British pay-TV broadcaster BSkyB said they agreed to a broad-based marketing deal spanning TV and the Internet in Britain and Ireland. The agreement extends the alliance announced earlier this year between Yahoo and Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation, which owns 40 percent of BSkyB.
