It would be interesting to know what influence the auto-fill has had on driving up reported search volumes for 'listed' auto-fill keywords/terms versus similar but 'non-listed' or 'lower-ranked' auto-fill keywords/terms. E.g. When starting to type for the search term "bike storage box", other similar options are auto-listed (e.g. "bike storage solutions", "bike storage bag", etc) well before the intended search term. And, what effect has auto-fill had on search volumes for the singular vs. the plural of a keyword? As example, prior to auto-fill existing, a search for a "bike rack" would have seen that exact term entered into the Search Engine. But now, what % of those who start to enter "bike rack" actually click on the auto-fill suggested plural "bike racks". What is the trickle-down effect for the owner of BikeRack.com (and conversely for the owner of BikeRacks.com)?

It works very well, and often results in at least an available .net if the .com isn't available. Many of them have quite nice search volume as well.
