Neutral

MS is a software and services company -- it makes sense to release apps on as many platforms as possible. Arbitrarily fencing-off services will only hurt them, and they know it.

This isn't signalling an end to WinMo (obviously), it's just MS admitting that the iPhone has a big user base and getting some of their popular software on that platform is a good idea.

And the "Bing" app, which is already available on WinMo and Blackberry, isn't web search, it's closer to Google Maps. It's a location-aware stuff finder and basic GPS app.
