I verified with one other Evo owner that this stopped working for hime also. I just wanted to know if was affecting other people as well so I don't go crazy trying to troubleshoot it if it's a problem with googles servers or something. thanks.

Oh ok! Wasn't sure. Yeah the search button long press has always been wonky for me since day one, even after the update. Every now and then it gets it right after 4 or 5 tries but most of the time it spews out crap that is nothing close to what I said. I say "call home" and it tries to dial "mike's pizza pub" in tuscon, arizona when I live in central Florida.
I have to say it's google's messy software implementaion. Maybe they will get this fixed with gingerbread but something tells me it won't, but we will just have to wait and see.

Don't ever set your EVO (while charging) on a Bamboo (large multitouch/pen pad). I put my EVO on charge and set it on top of the bamboo and after 5 minutes, my evo starting going haywire....screen turning on/off repeatedly and my mouse cursor on my PC started jumping all over the place.....scared the crap out me. Just a heads up.
