iPhone Search Page
It takes too long to load a whole Web page just to get to a specialized search box. Fraser Speirs made a quick-loading Wikipedia search page. I've made my own with a few more sites. The searches open in new windows so that you don’t have to reload the search page later.

Hmm, those URLs got mangled in the posting, but you can generate them yourself with the following snippit:
curl "http://mjtsai.com/iphone.html" | perl -0777 -e 'use MIME::Base64; $text = <STDIN>; $text = encode_base64($text); $text =~ s/\s+//g; print "data:text/html;charset=utf-8;base64,$text\n";'
Add the resulting text as a bookmark in Safari, and sync to your phone.
I think I've fixed the URLs. Also, the <STDIN> (I’m guessing that’s what it was) got removed from your Perl code. I’m a Python guy, so here’s a version in that language:
curl 'http://mjtsai.com/iphone.html' | python -c 'import sys; print "data:text/html;charset=utf-8;base64," + sys.stdin.read().encode("base64").replace("\n", "")'
