The fact is that Google search is Google's bread and butter and they're replacing it with a search engine from a major competitor? That's just insulting. Most people buying a Google phone expect Google integration.
Like I said, I don't approve of what VZW is doing (please re-read the post). But the problem with the reaction to this is a bunch of Bing-bashing. This is completely unwarranted. Some people have just been using Google for so long, it's like muscle-memory: Anything different is more difficult and therefore, crap. But this is not the case. Again, just my opinion, I don't mind the VZW bashing because what they're doing is blatantly wrong. But bashing Bing without giving it a long, and fair shake, is speaking out of ignorance. You really have to commit to it, not expecting that it'll return search results in the same way as Google and thinking, "If it ain't Google, it sucks." The Kool-Aid is just as strong on the Google side as it is on the Apple side.
