InquisitorX Search Engines Gives Answers Before You Hit Enter

Several months ago I covered a few search engines that would give suggestions as you type. Now there's a search engine that gives results as you type, without your having to hit the enter key on your keyboard. InquisitorX is in beta and is available at http://www.inquisitorx.com/beta/ .

Start typing out your search query. As you type you'll get suggestions for additional searches and three results of a Web search (which is the big weakness with this engine as I see it; only THREE results?) and links at the bottom of the results for search results on other pages -- Technorati, Amazon, Flickr, etc.

For maximum interestingness try typing in a longer query. I typed in three blind mice and the suggestions and results changed with almost every character.

The immediacy of the results for InquisitorX is interesting, but because there are so few results I don't get a good sense of things from this search. How about ten results? Or even five? One place I can see this would be useful is on a cell phone, if it were possible to use it there. It'd be great to get search results there without waiting for a page to reload.
