Google announced a Home Screen Plugin for Windows Mobile that will allow you to perform mobile searches up to 40% faster. This is a great Windows Mobile plugin for quicker access to the mobile web. Basically you type in your query and hit enter or search and your Pocket PC quickly loads Pocket IE and takes you directly to the search results.

They’ve had a Blackberry application since December and recently released a Symbian plugin with similar functionality. It looks decent and really does load the web faster. No more waiting for the Google search page to come up prior to typing in your query.
