Where’s the Yahoo UMPC?

Posted on 09 January 2007, Last updated on 13 May 2015 by

This was the flyer that appeared ont he internet during the IDF back in Sept. I’ve just been following the Yahoo press conference via Engadgets converage and there was no mention of it or Yahoo Go for the desktop. In fact, I went to go and try out Yahoo Go 2.0 mobile (Beta) and not only was the Beta full but all references to Yahoo Go for the PC desktop have gone.

Is Yahoo Go for the desktop dead? Will we still see that hardware I wonder? Quanta were due to put it into production but if Yahoo were funding some of it, has the plan changed? Its about now that I wish I was at CES!

Steve.

    I am the product manager for Go Desktop. We know the Desktop and TV sites are down right now and they will be back. As you can imagine, there was a lot of activity around launching Go Mobile 2.0 and the other 2 sites got pulled down accidentally. Thanks for noticing ;-)
