    Bing is coming to iPhone 4.0 as the default search engine, as well as the Maps Engine!

    This doesn't make sense for Apple, google dominate the market, why go with the one with the least amount of searches.

    has nothing to do with who's #1 or better.
    it comes down to who wants to be on the phone and how much they are willing to pay for it. ;)

    microsoft may jump on anything to be a default search engine.

    QFT.

    I mean just look at the people who have Windows machines running and what search engines they use. (Even though Microsoft's search engine is the default as well as the browser) (I.e. Google holds most of the market shares on search engines world wide)

    I read it somewhere, its in the PCW > http://www.pcworld.com/article/187261/bing_to_become_the_iphones_default_search_engine.html

    Google made Nexus, so they kinna join the rival side to Apple now..
    Since Bing is nowhere close becoming a threat to Apple, they might just gonna replace Google search with Bing.

    Apple and Microsoft are good partners, in fact Microsoft was the one who saved Apple back in 1997. :cool:

    Bing is not the lease amount of searches now. It's the newest, probably, but now lots of websites got most traffic from Bing except Google.
