Microsoft Releases Bing 1.1 for iPhone and iPod Touch, for U.S. Only
Sad isn’t it? Having read that the Bing app was updated to version 1.1, I quickly checked to see if the app was available in my neck-of-the-woods. Of course, it still isn’t, and it looks like Canadians (like me) are not alone. The Bing app is only available in the U.S., leaving the rest of…
