Yahoo Ups Free E-mail to 1GB ... in China ALONE!

[Anthony Ng]

Yahoo offers gigabyte e-mail in China:

Yahoo has increased the storage limit of its free e-mail service tenfold in China, but users in other parts of Asia will not get to enjoy the same benefit anytime soon.

In a statement on its mainland Web site, the firm said it has boosted the storage capacity for its free mail service from 100 megabytes to 1 gigabyte (GB), matching rival Google's upcoming Gmail offering.

They would probably launch it only when Gmail is available publicly.

Yahoo and MSN are ALREADY in the lower hand when Google starts giving away 1 Gig storage for free as beta. In terms of competition, when Gmail is open to the public with their 1GB thingy, it will be *too late* for Hotmail or Yahoo Mail to respond then.

Yahoo gives 100 megs which is good enough to keep me from going to Gmail.
