There is no Bing for ChromeOS yet..why not? same reason those WP7 apps are not as good/lacking...because WP7 came out recently and they did not have enough time to implement it..its also possible that due to M$ limiting access to native code gives Google the disadvantage on the platform..

A lot of people misunderstand how evil Google's revenue model really is..Far superior then M$...why? because google makes 0$ on Android...yup 0$..and they make 0$ on everything else they do...the money they make on Android apps is just icing on the cake....but they make their money from Adsense! aka ads...thats pretty much over 90% of their earnings...EVERYTHING they do is made to compliment Adsense...

So things like Google maps, youtube etc are all things to help compliment Adsense..so if it were up to them theyd get the best version possible onto WP7 as thats their CORE money maker...Android just gives them more control of pre-loading their Google stuff...Ive seen apps made by Google come to iOS even before Android on some occasions...simply because they push am out as soon as they can due to it being their money maker...

Why do you think Google wants to now give away free internet to people? cause the more ppl that have internet access..the more likely you are to use Google and make them money..via Adsense..

Notice how Google does not let devices have Android market unless they use their Google services...because in comparison Android market is not their core money maker..Adsense via Google Maps, Google search and etc is!
