The hard working John Kuch over at telco apps company Seven pings us to say that Yahoo and Sprint will be branding Seven's push mobile email solution. . . the first blackberry-like service for consumers.

John claims that...

* Yahoo! Mail for Mobile, powered by SEVEN, is the first push (blackberry-like) mobile email service for consumers.

* With Yahoo! and Microsoft getting into push email this week, mobile email is not just for top execs anymore. Blackberry is no longer the only game in town.

* Consumers can now access their email using a variety of smartphones and everyday cell phones.

* Simple start-up. Consumers can sign up from their mobile phones and get up and running by entering their existing Yahoo! username, password into their phone.

* Cost of the service is $2.99 a month, Blackberry costs $30-$50 a month.

* Do Google, AOL or Earthlink have a push mobile email service?
