Minimal search app for android that launches quickly and opens soft keyboard immediately.

This app requires no special permissions, runs on Android 1.5 and higher, and is open sourced at http://levis501.github.com/MinimalistSearch/

Quickness is achieved by omitting features of the standard search:
- No search history maintained
- No test of the internet connection is performed
- No auto-complete
- Minimal interface
- No personalizaions (default search provider always used)

Features
- Paste button
- One click "Paste and Search"
- I'm feeling lucky searches

There are other search apps with many excellent features. Minimalist Search has only one feature: speed.
Keep search text upon device rotation and resume
