The Topic Search is near the top of this page.
If you have a look near the top of this page you have the title 'Message' to the right hand side you also have 'Topic Search' and 'Topic Options'

Glad to see 'Watch' & 'Un-Watch' forums/topics now have their original (version 7) names, but it looks as though the description doesn't actually change until you logout then back in again.
After checking again it seems that the 'Watch This Topic' description doesn't actually change at all to 'Un-Watch', though the dialog box that's displayed does display the correct information.

Ah yes, got it. Thats a new Topic Search, not a New Topic search! lol
Well, the Un-Answered Topics is nifty too though. 
And now we're on page two, nicer page navigation too!!

To reduce database hits and page load times it uses AJAX to findout if
you are subscribed to a forum or a topic, so if you re-open the drop
down it should get the new data from the server.

Yes thats what I expected, but it doesn't always seem to work for me. I tried a couple of times now but seem to get different results.

I can't see how this could happen as the data comes directly from the database. I've tried it myself about 20 times, clicking on and off in different browsers and it seems to be working fine.
So when you click on 'Watch This Topic' link, the page refreshes, and when you go back to the drop down once the page reloads it doesn't say 'Un-Watch This Topic'?

Yes that seems to be the case. I'm using IE7 under XP Pro if that's any help.
