Today Microsoft (http://financial.washingtonpost.com/custom/wpost/html-qcn.asp?dispnav=business&mwpage=qcn&symb=MSFT&nav=el) has come up with a way to get to Bing from within applications on your iPhone and Mac with a new SDK. Till today, the default Google search would have been your only option in order to perform a search on iPhone search bar using the safari browser unless of course you decide to change the settings to Yahoo search. Otherwise you need to have go to Bing web page in order to use it.
According to Microsoft:,
"The SDK was designed to remove the headache of manually having to parse XML or JSON in order to communicate with the Bing API."
The Bing SDK for iPhone and Mac is a Cocoa Framework which enables Mac and iPhone developers to easily integrate Bing search results into their applications.
The SDK Provides:
Synchronous or Asynchronous querying
Access to Web, Image, Video, News, and Phonebook source types
Potential to easily add dynamic search results to all of you applications!
