Google Instant

So there is this new Google called, Google Instant that basically carries out a 'Google search' as you are typing into the search bar. It updates in real time as you modify and add keywords to your search. This means you won't have to scroll or press the 'Enter' key when conducting a search.
Because y'know; having to scroll and press Enter is the main problem with Google, right?
But I would like to point out that that is quite possibly the laziest thing I have ever heard.

Google Instant hasn't been publicly released quite yet but it is being phased into those that have a Google Account over the next few days in the US, UK, France, Germany, Italy, Spain and Russia that are using Chrome v5/6, Firefox v3, Safari v5 for Mac and Internet Explorer v8,

I'm not losing sleep over any excitement. I'm not sure about you, but I don't mind spending "more than 9 seconds to enter a search term" or being able to "save 2-5 seconds per search". It just doesn't classify as bragging nor excessive waste of time. I waste more time sitting at red lights waiting to turn left.

I will admit that it is a neat free feature but Google are giving this way too much hype. They're making me think they have cured cancer.
If Google is interested in saving time, they should put their money to better use.
