Microsoft Unleashes Bing iPhone Application

Microsoft is not resting on its oars. The deal it entered into with Yahoo seems to be going one sided and to Microsoft's advantage. Currently Bing now controls 10% of market share while yahoo search continues to suffer. To profit more, Microsoft has just released a Bing iPhone application that lets users access Bing search from their Smartphone. This application has been available since December 15 on the iPhone application store. This is a move by Microsoft to make some money from their strong rival to the Window mobile phone: iPhone is gaining shares to the detriment of the window mobile phone.

Before now, there have been similar applications on a number of phones including Window mobile and on phones available to Verizon wireless customers. This same application by Microsoft also exists for the SideKick on Verizon, BREW, and Blackberry.
