You will have seen our post about Yahoo! Mail finally leaving beta and rolling out some new features.
I’ve just noticed a story on Computerworld (New Yahoo Mail exits beta, rolls out improvements) which seemed to suggest that we might not get the SMS feature here in Australia. They’ve announced a few places which will get it, and said the rest are dependent on deals with local service providers.
I’ve put a call in to Yahoo! Australia to try to get some clarification on whether they’ll launch the SMS service locally. I’ll keep you posted!

    I wondered whether there was any point in have an Australia-centric Lifehacker. You’ve convinced me Sarah – I just swapped my Google Reader feed to lifehackAU. Cheers.
