Good news is, there is an application you can purchase for $0.99 called “OldSearch – Old School Search as in OS5.0” from the BlackBerry App World that will give you access to the good old OS5.0 search you are used to.

App World is already installed on your phone. You will need to create an account in order to purchase the app. Here is the link to app world appworld.blackberry.com/webstore, click “register” to create an account.

After registering on the site, go to your phone > expand “All” and select “App World” > search for “oldsearch” > purchase and download.
Memos and tasks are included when making a search.
All Contacts Name/number/email/address/recent activity/etc. It does search under company, so most of business contacts have full information when I save their various contact info. One of our main vendors is 'CBRE', I have about 35+ contacts for various employees around North America.
E-mail
Music
video/pictures
ringtones
3rd party app search; poynt, youtube, fb, google
help/options/app world
bbm contacts and some 3rd party IM apps.
