A search engine on a mobile device arguably performs a different function than its desktop counterpart. Like any other vague generalization, this is just that: a vague generalization, but, searches done from a mobile device are more likely to fit into a category. Movie times, business location/contact information, weather, etc. You're not likely to attempt tracking down that obscure Magnetic Fields cover from your cell phone. For that reason, I'll take an optimized (and heavily filtered) search engine experience on my mobile device any day. Whether it's Yahoo, MSN, Google, or anyone else is immaterial. All of the major players are capable of providing relevant content in this area. And if you really need to do a serious Google search, go to your browser and get crazy.
