Google gets even chummier with S60, releases search app


By default, home screen search is a luxury reserved only for Nokia's very newest S60 handsets, but Google's looking to change all that -- and you don't have to wait for the N78 or N96, either. The searchmeisters have just released a native S60-based application that adds Google search directly to your device's home screen, shaving a few precious seconds off the amount of time required to figure out the capital of Mozambique (Maputo, by the way) or the phone number of that awesome Cuban joint up the street. Now, what'd be really cool is if the app supported GPS for location-based results instead of requiring a zip code, but we suppose they've got to leave something to keep us pining for the next version.
