Hi Karthik- Thanks for including those searches!

Currently we index prices for consumer electronics. If you look at products in this category, you'll find our results are better than our competitors- Google Products, Pricegrabber, Yahoo Shopping, etc.

Hey John - That explains the results I got. Maybe you should include this information in the homepage. But otherwise I like the way the results are presented and the feeds (Google still doesn't have this).
