Answer 1

You can use GPRS to open yahoo IM from your cell phone

Answer 2

Soon you will be able to download Yahoo Go 3.0 to your phone and use Yahoo Messenger!

There are several things that you can do

You said that you have unlimited WEB

go to

http://m.yahoo.com

and chat there or

go to

http://ebuddy.com

http://heysan.com

and you can chat here

The other way is to sign up for Yahoo Mobile SMS

(ok if you have free sms)

First go to yahoo Mobile and register your phone

http://mobile.yahoo.com

Then enable the Mobile option on yahoo messenger

(this is for v8.1)

>>>For v9.0 beta- you can sign into Yahoo Messenger Mobile from main screen- it's great!!!

When you sign out of Yahoo messenger later make sure this is checked on Messenger

Open messenger

>>Messenger (menu)

>>>Preferences

>>>>General Tab

there is an option that says

when you sign out of yahoo messenger

to sign into yahoo mobile

if that option is dimmed  just fill in country and your cell # and respond by putting in the PIN to enable it.

then choose OK

You can go here too if you know the cell phone you want to contact
