Despite Yahoo getting the jump on it with AT&T, it seems that Google has managed to bite back, as T-Mobile has ended its year-old exclusive deal with Yahoo, and replaced it with Google. Now when BlackBerry users visit the T-Mobile portal, it’s obvious that Google is the search provider at the top of the screen. A Yahoo spokesperson has confirmed that it is not longer working with T-Mobile for search, though it continues working with the carrier on other services such as Yahoo Mail, Messenger, News, Sports, Finance and Flickr. Do these search-partnership deals affect which search engine you choose? After all, it’s fairly easy to type in the URL of any search engine you please in the browser.
