I just liked some of the features, but since i posted this here I did play with it a bit, and now it is gone from the computer, a waste of space.

The functions of Sherlock have basically been subsumed by Dashboard, including translation.

(Well, I should say the functions other than actually searching for files have gone into Dashboard. File searching is now Spotlight.)
