What's the best Street Address Search service?

Question

I'm impressed with the simplicity of Microsoft's Virtual Earth Street Address search service.

My requirement is to type rough address info with no comma separators into a simple text box, press a find button, wait a few seconds and then observe a result picklist.

I mocked up something here using the virtual earth SDK.

Does Google Maps have a similar API?

Which street address search service is better?

Yes.

There is a bit of information in these related questions:
