The mathematica feature is extremely useful and reliable. All the other things (looking up info) tend to drive it into an infinite loop. It also doesn't know how to parse a lot of queries. Still, the idea is nice.

Omg, just on my uni forum someone posted the same thing: Wolfram Alpha Laughing Cool thing if you're on the road, and don't have Mathematica 7 with you, and you just need to integrate sth Laughing

I won't be using it, because i have Mathematica 7, plus if you want real computing then you need to programe it yourself...
