There are some on the market, you just need to look. Back on topic, how much is Firefox making off of Google AdWords partnership? Let us do the math. 150 million Firefox downloads to date. Probably about 25 million of those active, and searching Google once a day. In the US, Google makes something like $.09 a search. So, worldwide, let's say $.03. Firefox, getting 80% of AdWords revenue then is bringing in a conservative figure of $.02 per active browser, or possibly $500,000 per day. That figure could be totally off, but is quite hefty none-the-less, even if the total is half or 25% of the above figure.

I think it would help out lot of folks around here :P Screw google.
