Grove explained that he wanted to make as few concessions and compromises as possible when it came to bringing Yahoo search to the iPhone. So the new mobile site comes with some goodies, too: SearchAssist, to auto-complete inquiries; compatibility with Yahoo's SearchMonkey widgetized results (if you're logged in), and search shortcuts like weather, movie times, and local information.
Early reviews seem to be positive. "Thanks for finally giving me the reason to get one of those damn iPhones," a commenter on Grove's blog wrote.

Today Twenty08 released a new instant messaging client for the iPhone/iPod touch. MobileChat (iTunes Link) allows you to connect to multiple IM services, including: Our own Michael Arrington joins Wired’s Steven Levy and the Wall Street Journal’s Walt Mossberg on last night’s Charlie Rose show
. Most of the discussion was on the iPhone 3G
and how Apple continues to turn the mobile world on its head. At the
end of the discussion the trio also talk about Yahoo’s future.
This is Mike’s third appearance on the show this year. See his March and May conversations with Rose as well.

I came home tonight to a bunch or emails and comments letting me know I was on Yahoo for the “Out of iPhones” video. Thanks everyone! I definitely appreciate it, because I would have had no idea otherwise.
Now, if you’re here and wondering why I was calling for an iPhone on an iPhone — that one is not mine! It’s a demo from AT&T and as soon as I make it to a store that actually isn’t out of them, I’ll buy mine.
I did attempt today to get one, but by the time I got to the store, they only had the 8 gig models left. Tomorrow.. I will prevail. Hopefully. Wish me luck!
