You can now see instant flyout previews of sites you’re considering viewing on Google Instant. In my personal testing, the thumbnails of sites I want to see haven’t shown up, but maybe the service is too new.

This is more about getting the user to have the ability to tweak their settings to ensure they are getting the site they want before they click. Hmmm. SEO implications?

Oh, and if you’re using keyboard shortcuts in Google Instant, use the right-arrow key to flyout the preview on the result you’re inspecting!

Awesomely, Google Instant is also now in beta for mobile, but only for Android 2.2 or iOS 4 users.
