Windows Phone Thoughts: Bing Team Excited for Windows Phone 7 Release

"Not surprisingly, what excites us the most is what the team has done with Bing on the Windows Phone 7. There have been some very positive reviews of the experience as a whole and it's great to see how the team's work integrating a native Bing experience has been received."

Microsoft has done an excellent job at integrating technologies into Windows Phone 7. This is no more apparent than in the way Bing has been prominently placed on the phone to provide users with a powerful and intuitive search experience. The Bing team has been working hard to make sure that there are plenty of useful features such as location-based searches, news, and of course, Bing Maps. One thing that is currently lacking (but was available with Windows Mobile) is voice-guided navigation. The Bing team has shown an agility that seems to have been lacking on other teams at Microsoft, so it will be interesting to see what else they come up with before launch.
