Google mobile - coming soon with hands-free location based searching?

Garrett at ZDnet is reporting on what appears to be a neat mobile application from Google that will allow you to browse listings without typing. It does not appear to have launched yet but Garrett suggests:

The new feature, that from what I can tell is new, lets you browse through categories of businesses without you having to type a word on your mobile device.

Some of the most promising Mashups are in the mobile space, and thanks to the fact that many phones will soon be able to geolocate we should soon see mobile enhancements like this one from Google where you'll be able to have your phone automatically pull up relevant information for your current location. This will be wonderfully helpful for highly mobile professionals as well as great for tourists new to a region.
