Thanks for the help. (The link you provided is for a year-old version of the Bing app. That version was not very impressive, but the current version is 1000x better. ) And thank you for comfirming that it's not just me & my phone having the problem.
I believe the issue is not carrier exclusivity (see this
link ); rather, there's something in the IHO build that makes the market think the phone is not compatible. If I flash my phone back to Froyo, I can download and install the Bing app. However, I can't download the app when running IHO, which makes me pretty certain it's a setting somewhere in IHO that's causing this problem.
And, the issue isn't so much just the bing app (as I said, I have a work around). The issue is: what *other* apps are not showing up in the market when you do a search because they 'think' they are not compatible?
