The Bing iphone application has been removed from all international iTunes App Stores bar the USA.  But instead of being the work of Apple, this is the work of Microsoft themselves.  Released in December last year, Bing apparently began disappearing on Monday this week, so why have Microsoft waited this long before taking it away?
