Quick Gold

Came out today. Very cool app that allows you to search for contacts , apps, web links, etc that are on your phone. Simply press the home button once while a desktop view, key board pops up start typing. App will start searching after the second letter is typed. Very fast no problems with lock up or anything.

I agree with your assessment Crupp. Lightning fast and just what the iPhone needs.

Now if we could just get cut-n-paste functionality.....

I like it a lot, too. I actually ditched categories for this. It's much quicker than scrolling and waiting for the categories folders to load.

will this search for emails?

[vegasflyby]

No, just apps on the springboard.

But the OP mentions contacts, no?

Here's the list of features from the authors page. Sorry, no email.

Features

Press the home (menu) button while you are on the SpringBoard to bring up a search bar and a keyboard. Type a few characters and tap to:

• launch springboard apps (and webclips)
• search contacts and dial their numbers with a tap
• type in a phone number in the search box and hit "Go" to call
• type in something like "yahoo.com" and hit "Go" to visit the page
• type "g <words>" and search google
