I must be behind the times also... I thought it used to redirect to mobile.msn.com, or something like that.

Not no more it seems. It's a mobi site.

Perhaps my memory is cloudy... But if it used to redirect, and now goes to the .mobi, perhaps it suggests something about M$ belief about the future of .mobi... Interesting to say the least if that's the case

I would be more excited if they were asking people to bookmark msn.mobi. So...I wouldn't call this a home run, a single with potential to stretch into a double maybe.

I would love to hear what Labrocca has to say about this. I'm sure he'll come up with something.

Same here in Canada. I haven't used Yahoo (other than for Overture) at all since a computer programmer friend introduced Google to me some 6 years ago. Granted Alexa is downloaded largely by "techies", I'm quite surprised to see Yahoo rank better than Google. Just doesn't seem that way around tech circles here in Canada...

Same here..

I can't remember using Yahoo other than for OVT. I even used Altavista before google arrived. So my latest search with yahoo was probably in the other millenium...

On my Nokia N73 msn.mobi looks very good but I still wondering why can't such big companies as Microsoft deliver a mobi site with a 5/5 score...

But of course great news again!
