A sip of Chardonnay.

Lots to look at in these Leopard/Chardonnay (OS X 10.5) Finder patent snapshots. Looks like Spotlight is finally moving into the, uh, well, never mind. Detail pages: Spotlight, Smart Folders redux, and indexing of detected text in analog data (images, audio). Steals a page (my very favorite page) from MS OneNote.
A nit:
It’s odd they would use photoshop to design the interface- why not something like interface builder?
Well, if you’re trying to design interface that doesn’t yet exist in the OS, by definition Interface Builder wouldn’t know about it.
