Mobile Search App like E71 or iPhone Spotlight
 
Is there an App on N900 that saerch all objects on it?
I mean the Mobile Search on Nokia E71 or, the Spotlight on iPhone, or better, the Search on Palm Pre: Just Open Slider-Keyboard and beginn to type

-> Search in all Contacts, Mails (all: MfE, Pop, etc.), Documents, Media (Music, Video, Pict.), Cal (Meetings, Todos, note, birthdays), Bookmarks, Apps, in App-Search, Ovi-Map-Points, wikipedia, google, youtube etc.

I know, that have to use a very powerful index and such a architecture at bottom, but would be nice. Is there any Search-App like that?

AFAIK, I think there is such thing.. but it searches only in contacts?

Yes, when you open the slider and begin to type, they search in the contacts... but just in the contacts =(

maybe it would be interesting to port tracker to maemo.

I think that the daemon could be easily ported, plugins would need to be lightly rewritten, and UI woud have to be written from scratch.

I think it could work well.

Anyone interested?

Tracker is already in maemo!

It is used for example for finding your media files wherever they are in your memory cards etc.
