How does Mozilla get money apart from the Google search deal? Are there no other search engines willing to pay to be the (even country specific) default? Also if Google sell Chrome wouldn't that mean they'd be able to keep the deal? In a sense they are no longer the monopoly?

On the second question: no one bids as high as Google, simple as that. Others may emerge, but no one's gonna pay that much, and with Google out of the race, the bids can get even lower.
