You just end up with more pics of fake ipads from months ago. Honestly – if BING can get me the images, shouldn’t google? It’s just strange.

Even just a standard image search, with no options set, yields some pretty oddball results. When I tried just now, my whole first page of results looks to be all concept images from before the iPad was announced, and not even very accurate ones:

Bing shows at least a small handful of the real device itself.

I often have problems finding large cover art for new CDs I’ve bought on Google Image Search. Maybe they are just slow :)

Another thing is… Bing and Google’s idea of what is a “large” image is different. Google’s “Large” seems much bigger than Bing’s. This doesn’t explain all of the difference, though.
