A similar experience here: Cuil is not current or relevant as far as my 
name went. I also somewhat dislike the interface.

Trying a different search, this time for a Panasonic TH-50PZ700A plasma 
TV (someone asked a question on another list, and I got curious), Cuil 
returned zero results on the model number, Google turned up a review as 
the first hit. As they used to say on my school reports, "must try harder".
