"Black Milk" knocks me off my feet in this collection of moody and eclectic songs. Massive Attack uses samples and keyboards in a very unique way, but not all the songs pack the same punch.

iPhone OS 3.0: Searching with Spotlight
Thursday, June 18th, 2009 at 9:00 AM - by Jeff Gamet
One of the new features in iPhone OS 3.0 that should make finding things on your iPhone or iPod touch easier is Spotlight. It's easy to use, and while Apple worked to make the system-wide search feature easy to use, most new users have to spend a little time searching for Spotlight before they can looking for files and songs on their device.
To access Spotlight on the iPhone or iPod touch, swipe once to the right from the first Home screen. You can also tap the Home button once from the first Home screen to get at Spotlight. Search results start appearing as you type, so in many cases you'll be able to find what you need with only a key taps.
iPhone OS 3.0's search feature
Flicking up or down on the results list hides the keyboard so you can scroll through long search lists. Just tap a result to jump right to the item.
Spotlight searching on the iPhone and iPod touch can find email messages, songs and videos, events, contacts, notes, and file names. It doesn't, however, look inside files like PDFs for content.
Flick up or down to scroll through search results
Spotlight searching is available with iPhone OS 3.0, which is free a free upgrade for iPhone owners, or US$9.95 for iPod touch owners. For information on preparing for the update, check out TMO's iPhone OS 3.0 Upgrade Guide.
