I knew Firefox was cool.

I didn't know it was this cool. If you don't have Firefox, I'll explain: It's an app to browse/search Amazon, embedded in your browser, using native widgets, and with a lightning fast response time.

If you're interested in downloading it, the link is here.

This is good, but an Amazon search option can be added (if not already present) to the search dropdown on the right bar. Click the add engines link. Tons of possibilities, from IMDB to wikipedia to roll-yr-own

Thanks for the reference to a new plug-in.

Thanks for the tips. The search link is definitely a lot faster than waiting for all the graphics to load.

Thanks for posting this -- it finally put me over the top to switch over from IE to Firefox.
