In an interesting turn of events, while Google is fuming against China in the recent cyber attacks scandal, Motorola seems to be leaning towards Microsoft in China to provide Bing search and maps on their Android phones; surely to protect their own interests and to make a quick buck in the process. In fact, as of this quarter, the entirety of Motorola’s Android phones that use Google search and maps will be replaced by Bing. Devices that are in customers hands or sitting on shelves will receive an OTA update that brings the new Bing apps. What’s interesting here though, and terrifying as well, is that there is no doubt that this wouldn’t be forced onto other markets. I’m looking at you U.S.A.
