Yahoo Go Beta 3 For BlackBerry Now Available!
January 8th, 2008 by Ronen Halevy
As we mentioned last night Yahoo has finally released the new Yahoo Go Beta for BlackBerry. The new version is meant to bring quite a few new features to the table including speed improvements and new map features. I am just installing it myself so I will let you know how it goes after CES winds down.
As I mentioned before the new version is even larger than the already large version 2.0. The download size is almost 1 megabyte so if you are on a limited data plan…you know the drill.
You can pick up the download by going to http://go.yahoo.com from your BlackBerry and follow the download links.

It’s not just the download time (and cost if you’re on a meter). Device memory space is scant and precious in all Blackberry phones. RIM really did skimp on that one.
.
I don’t know about Yahoo!Go version 3, but v2 was totally not worth it. Too much bloat for little benefit. And I found the app clumsy too, not well designed. I can get all those services with better quality from a bunch of independent apps and still probably less bloat with all of them combined than Yahoo!Go alone. The change log does not impress me at all…

I really wish RIM would open up the ability to install on an SD card or better yet provide more memory on the device. They were on a roll for awhile going from 8 to 18 to 32 and then the current 64 but they have been stagnant on the 64 for quite a few devices already.
Yeah I think Yahoo Go is full of bloatware but I know some people who live off of all of Yahoo’s products so this may be a godsend for them. They would do better if they offered more synchronization support with the berry such as address book and calendar sync

Mampeman,
There are a ton of bugs in this beta. Not to mention the fact that the widgets are more of an Alpha release. They really could learn a thing or two about bloatware from google’s releases
