And when I try “closest grocery store” I get stuff downtown – more than 15 miles and 30 minutes away. It seems that doing proximity searches in Google Maps is still much more helpful.

The Google app also has voice support and has been location aware from the beginning.

So for me, this is just a tiny add-on for those who are forced into using the browser rather than anything that useful. I’ve been doing location aware Google searches on the iPhone for at least six months already.
