Marissa Mayer, iPhone, and Android

Marissa Mayer, iPhone, and Android:
Kara Swisher:


Most interesting, though, was a question about being able to use
Apple products, especially its famous iPhone. Until now, Yahoo has
largely been a BlackBerry work world, which might go a long way to
explaining why it has lagged in the mobile arena.


Ya think?


While many Yahoos carry a second cell — usually an iPhone or a
Google Android smartphone — it is not corporate policy.

Yet! Because, according to sources, Mayer declared in a recent
exec staff meeting that iPhones (and also Android devices) for all
was a distinct possibility.


My theory remains that Mayer personally uses and prefers the iPhone. I think she has good taste, especially by the standards of Google and Yahoo executives. Her influence fell at Google as Android’s rose.
