    Seriously if Apple release a search engine with a free mail service like GMail, I'll delete my Google accounts :D

    I certainly hope not, I've used Bing and I still prefer Google, partially cause it is, of course, the norm and I'm used to it but feels so much nicer. I'll be so surprised if they did considering their main enemy I'm sure is MS, also the exchange thing was to stop people buying Blackberry's for business

    Well this is the argument. Google IS in the smartphone biz, and M$ is not. yet..

    That's true, but still I would think that Apple are clever enough to realise Google is the most popular and it's quite likely that more people would prefer to use Google and MS are most likely going to get into the smartphone biz. I mean they do have windows mobile of course.

    Y'know, after being frustrated initially, and hating the whole "Bing" identity, and the terrible logo...it grew on me. Don't hate it near as much, and it's actually a good alternative to Google. I still use Google though because one, I use Chrome, and two, I'm just used to typing google.com in.

    Bing is the best search engine since the release of Google. I find everything real quick. But the only problem is the website is kinda hard to navigate on the iPhone. I hope they include it in iPhone OS 4.0 and make a iPhone format.

    A format for Bing that works well on the iPhone? There's an app for that.

    Apple would never even think about doing that, anyway.

    Bing = Microsoft
    Microsoft = Apple's Rival
    Apple = Doesnt use Microsoft Products
    Microsoft = Doesnt use Apple's products

    Hence, they will not.
