Since the launch of the Bing for Mobile iPhone app, we’ve heard some great feedback and are excited that Bing is showing up more and more as the search option for those using Safari on iOS4. We’re happy you are giving Bing a try and are enjoying some of the features like social, shopping, and the fresh homepage image every day.
