Yahoo! (YHOO:Nasdaq) shares galloped up 6 to 173 in after-hours trading following its strong second-quarter earnings report. The company made 11 cents a share, topping the 21-analyst First Call estimate by 3 cents and moving ahead of the year-ago 1 cent. TheStreet.com reported on the news in an earlier piece . Yahoo! to deliver through German mobile phones LONDON, July 8 (Reuters) - U.S.-based Internet guide Yahoo! Inc (Nasdaq:YHOO - news) has joined forces with German mobile telephone operator Mannesmann Mobilfunk to deliver Internet services to telephone handsets. In a statement late on Wednesday, 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 of Mannesmann AG (quote from Yahoo! UK & Ireland: MMNG.F) and U.S.-based AirTouch Communications Inc , recently acquired by Britain's Vodafone Group Plc (quote from Yahoo! UK & Ireland: VOD.L). On Wednesday Yahoo! and British pay-TV broadcaster BSkyB (quote from Yahoo! UK & Ireland: BSY.L) 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 Corp. , which owns 40 percent of BSkyB.
