ATLANTA-Cingular Wireless users can send and receive Yahoo! instant messages
though a new, full-color graphical interface, the companies announced
Wednesday.

"Instant messaging has exploded in the U.S.," said Jim Ryan, vice president

gives our 25 million customers even more messaging options."

Sprint PCS also offers Yahoo! instant messaging with color graphics; Yahoo!

V400 or V600 phones and will soon be available on other handsets.
