I Need a Search Tool for the Calendar on iPod touch 2G

Question

I am trying to replace my old Tungsten E2 Palm Pilot with my iPod touch 2G -- I have my calendar and Mobile-Me set up and synced.
The one main thing that I need is a search function for the calendar on my iPod touch 2G. That would turn the touch into a serious business tool - instead of a game/music toy.
iCal has a great search function on my Macs - I want to be able to do that on the road with the touch.
I want to be able to see the date that something happened - or when I was someplace - by searching for a name on the touch calendar. Ideally, it would work like the search function on iCal.
Is there a way - or an APP- that will do that???

Answer 1

I asked the Apple Store here in Toronto regarding the Search or Spotlight function on the iPod Touch, which is non-existent. This feature is SO useful specially when I need to look for a past or future appointment(s) or email, or info from the Address Book. Why is this feature not included in the iPod Touch software as a basic function? I used to own a Palm PDA and even at its basic version, it had a Search function. I can easily look for names, events, memos, etc. Before iPod Touch came, I hoped that a gadget such as the Palm would be available from Apple and when the iPod Touch came out, I was SOOOO glad it surpassed the features of a Palm but hoped it had the Search of Spotlight feature that is so useful on the iMac. Can you please include on your next iPod touch Software upgrade this Search or Spotlight feature?
