Microsoft has sprung a cheeky but understandable surprise on Windows 7 phone users, as Bing will be the only default search engine on the device.
Pocket-lint confirmed the news that Bing would be the only search option for those with the Windows 7 device.
Greg Sullivan, senior product manager for Microsoft, said: "The search engine has been heavily integrated into the OS, so it would be hard to offer an alternative."
This is a brave move as it could be off-putting to some of you guys out there who like to actually choose how you search for info on your phone –and is in stark contrast to Apple iPhone users, who still have the choice between Google, Yahoo and Bing.
Despite this not being a huge surprise, it was thought that Windows 7 devices would follow Google's Android example, where there is the option to change the default Google setting.
Just a little something for you to think about.
