On August 28, 2007 Michael Arrington at TechCrunch dropped a bombshell that has yet to be explained: Yahoo is supposedly working on a cell phone.
Here is the quote in question:
And just to throw another tidbit out there - the HTC exec that was mentioned on CrunchGear yesterday said Yahoo is on a parallel track as Google, and has actually been working on custom phones for longer than Google. We may be seeing a Yahoo phone next year, too.
I suppose one could argue that if it makes sense for Google to launch a cell phone, it makes just as much sense for Yahoo to launch one too.
Now, I have to admit that Michael’s reference here is one of the first I have seen about a Yahoo Phone.
There is nothing concrete to support the Yahoo Phone rumor and right now it seems like an even bigger act of speculation than the growing rumors surrounding the Google Phone.
What do you think? Is Yahoo also working on a cell phone? And if so, would you use it?

It’s difficult to say, I don’t even know if I’ll use the gPhone (assuming there is going to be one). Don’t get me wrong, I love google and everything they do, but I also really love my iPhone.
