Boopsie: strange name, cool use of Java ME technology

Boopsie is not just the pet-name Mr. Howell uses for Mrs. Howell (or was that Lovey?). It's the name of a Java ME technology-enabled Web search engine based on texting-like prefix abbreviations. R U serious? 2 kewl!

Boopsie Java ME quick searches

Here's a quote: 

 Boopsie's smart prefix search 
 means instead of typing out 
 the whole word, all you need 
 is the first few letters. 
 Example: "Harry Potter." 
 In Boopsie, that's "ha po." 
 Easy!
Ye, bu ho doe it kno yo didn mea to sea fo Hasidic Porn? :-)
