Yahoo Upgraded to 1GB - April 27

A few users have received the 1GB upgrade in their Yahoo accounts. I just check mine, and it's still 0.25 GB. Looks like Yahoo upgrade has started.

mine's still 250 MB also...it says on the homepage that by early May I should have 1 GB... so I take that to mean sometime in August, considering the way I get new features

When Yahoo originally announced the upgrade, they said they would start end of April. I know the front page said May now.

Yahoo is pretty good about their upgrade, they complete to all users within 2 to 3 weeks. Hotmail would be the August date.

You're right- I got the 250 MB upgrade last year pretty quickly...and I think my Hotmail account was still at 2MB at Christmas

My main account is still at 250 MB.

I haven't checked my other accounts lately.......but my guess is that if they haven't been deleted for not being used, they're still at 250 MB as well.

Just noticed that I "got my gig" just before noticing your post. That's in my most-used yahoo account. I haven't checked those I use only occasionally yet.

Three of my accounts have been upgraded (the newer and the two older) and one not upgraded yet. Some of my friends experience a similar situation. All of these accounts are at Yahoo! Spain. How sad seems today my Yahoo! China account (same 1 GB and sloooooooooooooow).
