BuddyPOP: 21% discount for today only
For the next twenty hours MacUpdate is offering a 21% discount on BuddyPOP, an excellent “quick look-up” utility for Address Book.
Once installed, pressing a user-definable hotkey pops up a dialog window to search and match your Address Book contacts.
It then displays that contact’s information:
Of course you can do the same thing with Quicksilver, but BuddyPOP has an extra trick up its sleeve. It offers a very quick way to get info out of your Address Book into a Mail.app message (or any other kind of document).
BuddyPOP also handles Skype, X-Lite SIP SoftPhone and Vonage, has support for sending and receiving SMS messages via a Bluetooth-enabled phone.
A steal at USD 9.99. Snap it up 
from MacUpdate.

I’m a dedicated Quicksilver user, but before that I used the free TapDex – from yellowmug software. Does pretty much the same thing as Buddy Pop – and doesn’t cost a dime.

Fair enough, but it’s not really the same thing. It’s very much a “lite” version of BuddyPOP’s feature set:
