I couldn't believe my self today, when I was this morning in front of a client needing to search a proposal in my phone and guess what? THERE IS NO SEARCH FOR LOCAL FILES IN ANDROID.

I still can't digest this. When I was inside the local browser I looked for a search feature and nothing. Then I hit the google search button and nothing. Search the web, contacts and several other apps but not simple files inside my SD Card. Its really unbelievable.

I have to go manually, folder by folder and look at the PDF with the name I needed.

Am I too stupid or that doesn't exist? I doesn't make any sense at all.
