Jim Goldman of CNBC claims to have a source that is giving up some goods on the whole Apple and Microsoft teaming up against Google fiasco story:
- Microsoft wants part of the iPhone pie as the Bing app is currently bringing more web traffic than all of their Verizon deals put together.
- Microsoft is willing to pay Apple more than Google.
- Apple simply needs the search API from Bing, nothing more. (They will roll their own UI).
- Lastly, "Jobs hates Eric"
Ouch, that last one stings. How long will it be until we see Apple create their own search engine? Anyone taking bets?
