For anyone not seeing it, you have to use Google.com and not your national version. The ads appear not just in the first position of the onebox. I looked for lawyers in Houston the other day and got the yellow tags in position 2 and 6.

Currently they are in positions 1 and 7 and neither is at the top of the organic results. One is #8 and the other a fair way down (100 results).

I don't like this one bit, but Google isn't going to make much money at 7 x $25 per month, so I think the paid advertisers might be randomised to give everyone their time in the sun.
