Speed of the interface, I think is what he meant. It's not really meant to address system responsiveness, per se. It just puts the search results closer. Use the search box on Wikipedia to see the intention.

You still have the same search functionality when you hit enter or click the magnifying glass. As I said above, it's great for finding things where there's just one, or a couple of potential results. IMO, it works very well for finding artists or albums, as long as you use a unique enough search term. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=101248 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
