Bing has hit Android, but with something unexpected. When Bing arrived, we were all taken aside by the fact that the search engine by Microsoft was only available for Android phones residing on Verizon Wireless. However, Bing lovers (if there are any) rejoice, because Microsoft has issued a statement regarding the availability of the search engine on Android. The statement is available after the break.
Microsoft told MocoNews:
But that is expected to change over time. A Microsoft spokeswoman told us that because of its search partnership with Verizon, it’s launching on its network first, “However, we’re currently working to make Bing available on the other mobile operators and their Android devices.” Users on other networks won’t see the application in the Android market because applications can be filtered appropriately depending on the audience.
