Interesting stuff.  I like some things about Bing, but I find it gives 
disproportionate weight to keywords in the domain, and less weight to 
inbound links to determine relevance as Google does.

The result is that my Rev pages score much lower in Bing, and it's 
difficult to move them up without using RunRev's registered trademark in 
my domain names.

Until Bing enhances their engine to include some of the many more 
variables Google uses, I suspect iPhone users will have a reaction that 
ranges from nil to disappointed, with very few feeling really great 
about the switch.
