Microsoft launches Bing iPhone app. Yes, you read that right.
Microsoft launched a fantastic iPhone app today. That sentence really says an awful lot, and what's more first blush impressions of this app are very impressive. Echoing the functionality of the web portal itself, the app offers a fantastic image search system, maps and navigation, news, and local business and movie search. The app even offers speech to text for entering searches. It definitely looks as if Microsoft has put their $99/year Apple developer license to good use. The app is available now in the app store. Additional screen grabs after the break.

BING search engine is just as good as Google. In my own personal experience, Google does give more releveant search result than Bing but the difference is very small. **
