I think so.
The idea is to get the telephone number into your phone, not to find your way when you are out-and-about. With a little planning, you can load up your phone with the info you need for a trip away from your PC.

Can you dial your cell phone from the printout? Can you consolidate all the addresses easily (on one device/sheet of paper)? What about the trees?
In short, I think it could be useful to a lot of people, although not of daily use for me. But the task for Yahoo! is to get people to know it's there and understand what it does. In this sampling, it appears that's not going to be easy.
That said, it
is annoying to have to enter an email address, even if I am logged into Yahoo. And it isn't even transmitted in the SMS message.
