Posted by Norman John in 3rd Party Application, 5530 XpressMusic, 5800 XpressMusic, N-Series, N97, Nokia, Samsung, i8910 Omnia HD
Moubail.com have launched a new widget which helps you finding videos, pictures, tweets or websites easily. Here you can download the widget for your Nokia N97, 5530, 5800 and Samsung I8910 HD. In case that you like it please feel free to donate.
What does it do and how?
iSearch speeds up the task of searching for stuff on the mighty Internet. Type a word to search for and click the service of your choice and the widget launches the phone’s browser and loads the result. The widget remembers the last thing that you searched for and displays it in the text box when you start the widget next time.
TIP! To make searching even faster you can set one of the services as default so that when you hit the ‘Enter’ key on the keyboard the widget launches the search right away. You set the default by clicking the ‘Enter’ symbol on the right end of the buttons.

There is an easier tool called Q Search that is less obtrusive. It will also load onto your homescreen as a widget or can be a smaller widget as a favorite application on the homescreen. Here is a link to the article about the tool:

I’m sorry to say, but: The qSearch Widget at least is a bad joke in every sense.
I agree with Symbian60.mobi.
The iSearch app is in every sense (look and feel) better than qsearch.
cool app.
but why they called this app iSearch
is this is a iphone/pod app? or the guys just wanted to be cool to code an i app?
very lame name
Of course it’s a lame name
and not for trying to be cool. It’s such a shame that the iPhone/iPod has given the ‘i’ such a bad name 
. It just means ‘I search’. After I released it I was already thinking I should have named it ‘nSearch’. I still may do that – in the next version.
Who is the developer for this app?
Would you consider an i8910 home screen widget? PLEASE!?
