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?
