Re: Antitrust implications.

tricky but i guess it would fly.

**edit:: Pc based web browsers never prevented you from navigating to an alternate search engine either, the difficulty came in when the default search engine was set for you. i.e. the little search box in the corner.

Not really tricky. It works very well. In fact, over the two months I've owned my DX, I haven't used the Google search widget once. Maybe I'm in the minority, but I don't see this as a big deal at all.

Its about choice. I dont use my google widget either, however I CAN if I want too, With the way the article reads the fascinate doesn't give you that choice, it gives you a Bing search widget and no way to change it. Even going so far as to block a different companies search widget.

That in my opinion is anti competitive the other team isn't even being given a chance.
