Google Tests Favicons In Autocomplete Search Suggestions For Local Results

Google Favicon

Google seems to be testing showing favicons or company logos in the autocomplete search suggestions for some local results, specifically brands. Someone posted a screen shot of this in action in the Local Search Forums, here it is:

Google Mobile Autocomplete Favicons

You can see the Arby's logo and the Wendy's logo in the search suggestions drop down menu.

When I try it, I do not get this:

Google Mobile Autocomplete Plain

I think this is a new test?
