Maybe I’m reading too much into this, but in some recent iPhone OS 4 screenshots I took in this weekend, something struck me as odd. Take a look at the shots above (via MacRumors). Notice anything? That’s right, gone is the ‘Google (NSDQ: GOOG)’ textual matter on the hunt button, swapped with the much more generic ‘Search’.
Interesting, no? Is this a sign that Apple (NSDQ: AAPL) is dumping Google as their mobile hunt? Or, perhaps this simpleton means there will be more hunt locomotive options when it comes to OS 4. You know, choose your default locomotive from Google, Yahoo!, BING, etc… That would seem to make the most sense for me. Another understanding could simply be that Apple and Google haven’t come to price on the default hunt for iPhone OS 4 just yet, in which case, developers have been exploitation ‘Search’ where ‘the Google’ used to be.
I suppose Apple could also be working in the own hunt locomotive, but lets get real number here. Apple needs to stick to their core competencies, if for some reason they branch out to hunt, wellspring, you can slap me silly. Besides, I’m not sure how confident I’d be using ‘Apple’ search results. I can see it now… You enter a hunt interrogation, Apple receives it, and submits it to a rigorous blessing process. If approved, you’ll get your results… However, you’ll have to wait a workweek or so for the resultant role, and chances are you’ll be denied anyway.
