Didn't see this on here so I thought I'd share. I just installed the "nearly there" online only flashable version myself and haven't run into any problems. There are also 2 other apk versions as well but it seems like the neraly there version is the closest to completion. This is the best version I have found so far so give it a shot. They say it's not completely done, but I'd say it's about inches away.

Yeah I'm about to flash the reekotubbs-3_offline one on Arctic with .215. Will report how it goes.

This worked. SOOOO much better than the original method. From what I've seen so far - this is the stock experience. Note that the default search for voice will pop up and you have to choose "Google" instead of "Voice Search."

I gotta say I'm not so worried about getting JB now that I have "Now"

It definitely makes the wait for Kexec more tolerable. Gotta say though, playing around with it on a nexus really makes you understand that Google wasn't exaggerating about project butter.

Yes I have noticed that. You can click on the magnifying glass on the right side for a preview - and then click on the preview to open the link. Definitely a tad annoying.

I've actually noticed the lack of calendar on the galaxy nexus as well. Maybe that feature takes time? Or maybe it considers another input for "appointments"...

I believe the calendar thing was a part of a Apple lawsuits so I doubt we'll be seeing that.
