They really don't seem all that monopolistic to me. A company that has a "Data Liberation Front (http://www.dataliberation.org/ http://www.dataliberation.org/) allowing you to switch out of their services at any time is hard to argue as a monopoly. Furthermore, I can search Yahoo or Bing from my Droid just fine, the only thing that's "locked in" is the phone wide search, which I'd say is somewhat reasonable. You aren't forced to use that feature even if you're using Android. I agree that people should be wary of them, but calling their behavior monopolistic is stretching it.
