First, I'm shameless. Second, I'm working on http://redwoodapp.com http://redwoodapp.com, a Spotlight-like OSX app that's similar to Greplin. Two key differences:
(1) Privacy - Redwood doesn't index your data: it conducts searches in parallel. When you open an item, it's cached locally for as-you-type search. Redwood doesn't intercept your traffic in anyway.
(2) No syncing complexity. Your Gigabytes of "Rent-A-Kitten" business plans on Google Docs are searchable immediately. Same with new messages in your 60k-message inbox.
We're using MacRuby, so you'll need OSX 10.6 or greater to try the beta.
