We are getting close. Microsoft is using its autoupdate tool to push
the MSIE 7.0 to its dron^wcustomers. People will have the "option" to
"chose" for different search providers for the upper right search form
(maybe you have seen this in FF already). One of the offered search
tools is Wikipedia.

This should - however - not stop us from creating an offline tool that
could be installed instead of Encarta for OEMs...
