Bing Updates iPhone App

Bing, Microsoft's search engine, said this morning that it has updated its Bing for Mobile iPhone and iPod Touch application. According to Bing, the updates--which will be available "soon" in the App store--include addition of the firm's travel price predictor and a map update. The price prediction tool is available on the Travel section of the app, and gives users information about travel deals at their home airports, last minute deals, and ways to search for fares. The company said its map update now includes better ability to see multiple layers of information, including an increase in font size on roads, neighborhood labels, and other information.
