It works great for me on my 8700c as well. I didn't bother trying to download it yesterday when I read the google description saying that it was just for the Pearl. Thanks for posting the direct link.

I tried searching for a few things, and it got it right every time. This was very surprising, since I usually have a lot of trouble getting voice recognition systems to understand what I am saying. This is one of the perils of having a British accent in the US. Google did a good job on this one.

When I used it for the first time it asked me for permission to set up a udp connection to 216.239.51.126. I was a bit suspicious about this, but a quick lookup shows that 216.239.51.126 is kc-in-f126.google.com, so I let it go through. Hopefully they will use a name instead of an IP address for this after the beta period to make it clear that it is a google site that they are accessing.
