Sprint will offer Yahoo's new multiplayer PC-to-mobile and mobile-to-mobile games on select Sprint mobile phones, the companies said on Monday. Subscribers using Sprint PCS Vision phones will be able to play Yahoo Poker with opponents competing via PCs or on mobile handsets.

The new cross-platform gaming application, which requires a regular Internet connection, will be available starting in mid-June to players registered with Sprint's Game Lobby, the firms said.
