Google iPhone optimization
Google has refined the appearance of its search page when visiting from an iPhone or iPod touch, an announcement reveals. Results are now formatted in a similar manner to other Google services, with a blue navigation bar, and vertically-aligned text or imagery that eliminates the need to scroll horizontally. Where appropriate, results will automatically bring up maps, as well as larger and more obvious direction and phone call buttons. In the case of multiple listings a Show Map link brings up the new view.
If needed, it is also possible to revert to the desktop version of Google via the Classic link. Access to the iPhone/iPod formatting is currently restricted, however; it is only viewable in English from the US, and requires an Apple handheld with v2.x firmware. Google says it eventually intends to bring the formatting to other phones, countries and languages.

I'm not seeing it.
I Googled something on my phone, and it looks the same as always.
