Yahoo Mobile has stopped development of its beta smartphone applications and will instead concentrate on the iPhone and other projects at this time. In an email to beta testers Yahoo stated-

“We are reprioritizing some products to help us better deliver the best possible experiences to consumers on mobile. To streamline our services, we will not develop Yahoo! Mobile for smartphones to focus our efforts on mobilizing Yahoo!, improving Yahoo! Mobile for web and Yahoo! Mobile for iPhone as well as developing new and engaging experiences for consumers, partners and advertisers.

We currently have mobile products that reach hundreds of different devices (including Blackberry), and we continue to expand that comprehensive list.” More at TechCrunch.

While the above is far from good news, we shouldn’t forget this part in which Yahoo says it is planning “new apps for the Blackberry and other mobile platforms with a different look and feel than the discontinued smartphone app”
