Yahoo! Go on Windows Mobile 5 Unfortunately Sucks Balls.
As a pretty avid user of Y! services, i was excited to see them rollout Yahoo! Go for Windows Mobile 5 (Smartphone no less). However...
1. The .exe installer horked. I had to use the .CAB install manually. No biggie
2. The app hijacked my current work IMAP inbox. I could no longer read my work mail. I could see my work messages but could not open any. balls.
3. The Yahoo! Mail sub-app was in a continual state of "Synchronizing". This lasted for days. This is a bummer as was one of the main reasons I wanted to use the app.
4. The majority of the sub-apps were links to the various WAP services which I already have bookmarked. whatever.
5. I uninstalled the thing and now get this periodic message that it can't find "YUpdater.exe".
I guess it still wants to synchronize. It's determined, I'll give it that :)

YES Yahoo Go does suck big time. I have not been able to fix the YUpdater.exe Notification error on startup. I've reinstalled, uninstalled, checked the startup folder to make sure its not running, scoured the registry for keys, run sktools to find invalid shortcuts/keys values. Nothing can get rid of it.
Its going to take a long time for me to trust Yahoo! on my ppc.
