Yahoo iPhone app

When it comes to the Apple (NSDQ: AAPL) iPhone, Google (NSDQ: GOOG) is clearly leading the way when it comes to mobile search. Their iPhone app was voice-enabled from the day one, and now their competitor, Yahoo, is joining the “voice game.” Yap, this means that you can perform web search by simply speaking. Moreover, users are able to customize the “My Interests” tab by clicking on “add anything” and then speak subjects they’re interested in.

For the record, Yahoo voice search is already available on BlackBerry (NSDQ: RIMM), Symbian S60 and Windows Mobile-powered handsets.
