I noticed the "followability" of the links from that search as well, and was
surprised at that, but it is just a coincidence, I tink. As I said, I get
the same number of hits from a PC-based google search. However, I could be
wrong if:
1) the results were being ranked for J-Phone compatability (MML and simple
html sites heavily weighted)
2) the links are being "translated" by the google j-phone beta page.
Anybody think either 1 or 2 above is going on?
