Someone has decided to clone the google search plugin that comes with the New treo 700w. This Plugin allows you to search the web using google from your Today screen. and heres the good part, it's free! ;)

The plugin allows you to search the web from the today screen. This seemed useful, and I wonder why no one ever thought of it before. I've often debated which to leave my homepage on in PIE, yahoo for me to check my mail and the like, or google, to do quick info lookups. Yahoo has won, but now I could have the best of both worlds.

Very quick response and no need to have GPRS pre-connected.

I fear this will make cheating at pub quizzes so much easier for the less-scrupulous ! :roll: ;)

Somthing I just found out is that you can type

08054 Movies in google and it will return all movies in your area.

I'm sure there were other keywords that can be used as well like weather, etc. I have never used Google so much before now....but I will start.

I have installed this on the MDA Pro, it appears in the today screen fine but if i enter a search string of more than one word only the first word is submitted to google - anyone else experienced this behaviour?

Cheers..
