Default google app versus contact search

I am sure that many of you have noticed the new google app searches your iPhone for contacts as well a the net search function. This may be a personal preference but I find I use this more than the contact search in the new address book search function mainly for 2 reasons

1. One it's just as accurate
2. It's much faster.

Anyone else found this?

hi patrickj. Wooh I am a big fan of your blog so if it wasn't good enough to be thanked by you for my quick little tip, to see that it (and i) made it on to your blog was very cool.

Keep up the great work with the blog. Sorry don't mean to sound like a fanboy

Thanks for the kind words! Always so glad to hear when people like the blog site. And I just had to share this tip there as well, as I think it's so cool. The Contacts app has been bugging the **** out of me since 2.0 first came out, and I'm increasingly impressed with Google's app

Just noticed it! Nothing special I'm afraid...too much time spent with the phone

Nice tip on the capturing screen shoots today on the blog....you'll have to put a list of tips together on the new 2.0. No better man.
