Granted, it’s TechCrunch so the actual article is worthless, but hey, it happened. Finally, apparently. Not sure exactly who was anticipating this.
I think the design style of searchme makes more sense on the iPhone since it’s a touch-based platform with limited screen real estate. At the same time the iPhone isn’t going to be faster than the computers on which searchme seemed slow and laggy, and the issue of sites not being readable on the searchme page doesn’t seem to have been fixed either.
Thought you guys might be interested in this.
Also, now that it’s served its purpose TechCrunch finally gets the boot from my RSS reader.

I enjoyed the negative comments on the article – quite accurate. Glad to see that other people agree with us/threaten that it should be less laggy.

I downloaded that app. It is extremely more practical than on a computer. It does still have a bit of a log to it when you scroll between sites.
