The firefox search engine extension for the lonely planet guides is really cool.
It seems to have just as much info as in the book. Although I haven't studied it very hard ...

Actually, it is just a toolbar that searches the Lonely Planet website for you....same information that you get if you visit the Lonely Planet website directly.

It is in the top right hand corner of Firefox, there are some that are already installed by default (Amazon, ebay) and a load that you can add yourself. It is not really a download, but just a java extention that takes one click to add.

Yes, same thing that's on the web. It's not their exclusively for the firefox browser or anything.

I was just updating my firefox browser after a system install, and I came across a lonely planet search engine function. Thought I'd mention it ....
